Nav's were not very happy with the new Crewing but the up side is Pilots now have some Peace and Quiet even if they have to bring their own Pies.

And now ...

Here's the Tenner Harry. I've got to hand it to you...you can fly the lowest!

(As an aside, is anyone else having trouble with the results page for the last comp? On my settings, it's page 1109 but it just won't open for me. I can see the posts from it when I reply, but I can't navigate to the page...odd)

The A-129 is capable of deploying two drones while in a high altitude hover, however, we don't tell the drones that. Target acquisition is by pointing, and weapon release is by vigorous and enthusiastic use of the cyclic.

A shortage of airframes meant that that second crew could only log 50% hours.

As a door-gunner, I would have thought I might at least have got a door....and a gun.
