No real change in how we do business indeed - just how when why and where did you do the business?

When I did it on several famous squadrons we were able to raise more than two four-ships at once and we didn't have another squadrons badge on our aircraft. Our groundcrew belonged to our squadron and we were self-contained for admin and fully deployable as a fighting unit to a bare base. In short we were a squadron - not a flight.

If you want to pretend we still have a particular squadron in service, that's up to you, but I would rather my old squadrons had their silver, standards and reputations in storage just in case our country gets the urge to defend itself properly again. In the meantime I don't want a bunch of pretenders wearing the crown.
