I got a kick out of the patching ceremony last night on Vent as LD, Gunner and Panther said "welcome to the team assholes!" that was too cool!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys - I've had a blast practice flying with the team so far - looking forward to getting to know you all better and everything that comes with being a member of the team. I've got some studying to do now! :lol:

Oh, and the 3D model is really something, it's just awesome - what a nice change from the stock model. Can't wait to get a view of it in tight formation. 8)

Congrats and welcome aboard to both of you! I wish I could have been in attendance for the ceremony last night, but it just didn't work out! I look forward to getting to know both of you better!!!

Thanks again, all. Definitely enjoying my indoctrination to the aerobatic brotherhood (meant in the gender-neutral sense). ;)

To be sure, making the team is similar to earning your private pilot license - a "license to learn".

@VPJT...it's nice to know I'm on a team with a retirement plan. :D
