A couple of cadets from the best ATC Squadron in the country will be reading this some time this week. Remember lads from the menu on the left you want to choose the logbooks section, and you will also enjoy BBall and Chunx' columns.
Remember what I told you, you can do anything you want but you have to make the decision to chase those dreams with all you have. Oh and keep working on those press ups :)

Scoob_SMB has posted a thread in the forums regarding some new campaigns he has created for Falcon 4.0 v. SP4.2. Here is a brief sample:
Features New Iron Fortress Campaign - Capture Seoul to win Modified Tiger Spirit, and Rolling Fire - from my builds on RP5 Four new Training Missions Old Campaign Map Smaller blue/red AB icons New brief/debrief screen New munitions screen
These campaigns, (especially the all-new Iron Fortress) should breathe some fresh air into the Korean Theater. They have been in development, off-and-on, for over 5 years.
