Announcing #7 (and tryout info)

I'd like to officially welcome our new #7 Operations Officer, Bon Jobie! As well as Cobra who's moving to #8 as Advance Pilot. Both of these guys have been with us for some time now and just to let everyone know who's interested in trying out, you caught us at a really bad time with the storm of interest in our team during the week everything seemed to happen all at once.

The release of 1.1, in the midst of updating our website and having the 8th pilot already lined up more or less might have misguided many of you to initially think we were looking just a new #8 since that was the spot announced open. Since, we now are 8 pilots on the team, we will host some tryouts in the near future for positions #9-12 and I encourage you to take it as seriously as you would any position! There should still be enough competition as it is for those spots and I can assure you it won't be a done deal after one tryout. As of right now there is no one who has yet flown or is in a better position for any of these spots, just to clarify that! Besides, we're always open for challenges for positions #1-8 as well if you think (and we concur) that you have what it takes. Our way of saying "if you don't think we're fair, you can prove us wrong!" :wink:

For the time being, post your interest in trying out in the Tryouts/Openings Thread (Sticky). I'd say sometime in May we'll start hosting tryouts, but just keep checking this forum for any updates!

Back to where we started. An official congrats (albeit belated) to Bon Jobie for filling a much needed position in which he's tailored made for and Cobra for being a good sport as well!

Congrats BonJobie. I know you have worked hard for it and are well deserving. "Right on into four.... There's four". Later.

LOL! :lol: "Right on into Foooooouuuuoour (voice breaking)...... THERE"S FOUR!!!"

Bon (Ton) deserves every bit of #7. He knows the show better than anyone else I know and is definitely an invaluable asset to us! And of course his precision flying shouldn't be forgotten too!

Agree. I sure have enjoyed the times I have flown with him. Sounds like a great fit... "Rolling left and Rolling... "
