Chiefsplanet B-17 Crew Assignments and Aircraft Naming

[Rain Man]

Okay, everyone. You've been drafted, you've been through basic training, and now you're in England. Your crew assignments are posted below. If you volunteered for duty, please check to be sure your name is on here. If not, let me know ASAP.

If you're not on here and didn't volunteer, but would like to join a crew, let me know and I can add you to the replacement crew list.

Pilots, please note: tradition dictates that you name your aircraft. Please submit a name in the next 24 hours. (I've got a bookmark to a website of real B-17 names, but of course it's down right now.)

Crew assignments were made according to post count, with the most posts equating to the highest position on the plane. Your crew was therefore determined by simply working down the list of posters (with some additions at the end for those who volunteered for service), so it's more or less random. No complaining about who you have to sit next to.

Well if we do not kill each other we will be the most vicious set of crew dogs on the earth.

Fear us,
Fear each other
Don't let the Pilot and Copilot have guns!!!

[ChiefJustice]

Phobia...i'd like to nominate this as our nose art.

[Skip Towne]

Plane # 16 is a cinch for great nose art. We have Big Daddy for our pilot.

Holy shiite don't give them a plane set them down at the peace conference with the enemy. The pilot, co-pilot and bombadier will talk them into submission.

Sorry....except for Countrygal,Warrior, and The Bad Guy, there isn't another person who inspires fear in my heart on this crew....

Logical and meme would constantly be fighting over who is in control, thus you would be doing nothing but going in circles...

In her spare time, meme would also have sabotaged the guns to fire only "love" bullets....one's that explode several hundred feet above the ground and when they do explode they spread roses and daisy's.....

Jimnasium would be having to fight with meme about what she did to sabotage all the radar and mechanical gadgetry....

Big ChiefDAve would be going crazy because all he would be able to raise on the radio is the "All Democrats For Dean Channel" thanks to meme sabotaging the radio.....the channel would be playing a 24-hour version of John Lennon's "Give Peace A Chance".....

Withing hours of taking off, Warrior, CG and The Bad Guy would have killed everyone else or parachuted out for their own safety....

Maddog - Have to agree, we have one mean sounding team. You have to be crazy to be in the belly of the beast, and maddog nails it.

I'm think, with RednFiesty we should look at a name like "Deep Red"

Hey Morphius...our Ace Pilot appears.....

Just to update you, we discovered that lazarus was a double spy and a traitor...Corporal R-N-F luckily was in her flight suit awaiting a call...she has taken over as your co-pilot and has promised to help keep up the "morale" of our esteeemed Ace Pilot should he tire out on the long flight....

We do have one small training drop on our way...we are attaching lazarus to a beacon bomb we are going to drop over Denver to mark a target for Fraz's plane to drop part of their munitions over Invesco Stadium....

Excuse me, we are a pretty compitent crew. I think we can find the target just fine.
