    Having been at the top of a few games in the past it is a hard pill to swallow that there are pilots that are much better than I am. I dont like to loose and I find I am not so gracious when I do. For those that were on last night I offer my apologies. Apparently Vodka and I do not fly well together, back to scotch. We do however need to find someone that is really good at squad tactics for air combat. I know ground tact but aerial being mutli dimensional I find I am out of my pay grade. I know we have appointed Walrus as a caller and he does a damn fine job, be we need a real game plan before we hit the air. Dedicated wing man etc.

    I'm glad to hear that you guys are working on it. Its really great. Whatever happened last night (I wasn't there but I get the picture), treat it as a part of the learning curve and when you're learning things, some things are harder to accomplish than others. Believe me, we deal with the same thing in SB and its not easy.
    My mentality - I'd rather have a bad plan than no plan at all. You cant become a better pilot overnight, same goes for the leaders. Everything that you encounter in the air is totally situational, there is no script, the environment is dynamic and constantly changes.
    My advise: Fly in pairs more, be more committed to your wingman than anything. His life is in your hands, remember that.
    As for tactics, you learn as you go. Learn from those who are better than you. Watch those replays, it goes a long way.
    Watch my stream when I'm flying with TWB. This is the type of teamwork we're shooting for and the only way we can accomplish that is by flying together, developing the discipline which will help us come out on the top and practice, practice, practice.

    2 shots - Tito's, club soda in a 8-12oz glass, some fresh lime. It's a nice tropical drink. (Although I prefer Bombay and tonic myself during the summer.) :D
