Chiefsplanet B-17 Crew Assignments and Aircraft Naming - Page 22

**Rain Man** · 01-20-2004, 05:53 PM

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.

I might suggest the name. Nattering Nabobs of Napalm if it is OK to use mixed war references.

Actually, I thought we'd name it in honor of otter ...

you know, something like The Mad Mexican, The Badass Blackies or, my personal fav, The Flying Wasp ...

As the bombardier for my team, I wanted to inform them that I will be opening the bombardier doors of the anal cavity in approximately 2 minutes. Wish me luck. Out.

Left Waist Gunner cntrygal

This is Bombardier Hoover.

We have had an attempted on our Aircraft.

Co-Pilot memyselfi, did not follow through on order given to her by Pilot Logical.

While flying over Oakland California, Bombardier Hoover wanted to drop the mother of all bombs on the Raiders Team Offices, to eliminate a clear and present threat to the Chiefs and the AFC west.

Pilot Logical agreed.

Copilot memyselfi began to scream and started to take our aircraft down, yelling, “No, my Richy boy could be in there.

After Tail Gunner kcnut, restrained her, its was decided by the crew that we launch her from the aircraft in an attempt to hit Al Davis’ car.

Mutiny stopped, target hit.

However we are now short one crewmember, requesting direction on what to do next.

Over

I can't believe I just typed that. We're sooooo screwed ...

**Dartgod** · 01-21-2004, 11:48 AM

So when do these missions start?

**Rain Man** · 01-21-2004, 11:54 AM

I'll write up some background and general information for people tonight, work deadlines pending, and then start the missions immediately thereafter. If I don't have to work late tonight, I might get the first mission posted tonight for the first few planes; otherwise, it'll be the weekend.

After that, I'm hoping to post one mission per week for the entire flotilla, maybe more once the numbers thin out a little bit. (I hope it doesn't damage morale to say that.)

"They're trying to kill me," Yossarian told him calmly.
"No one's trying to kill you," Clevinger cried.
"Then why are they shooting at me?" Yossarian asked.
"They're shooting at everyone," Clevinger answered. "They're trying to kill everyone."
"And what difference does that make?"

PS. You are aware of the tradition that says the gunners buy all the drinks for the pilot, right?
