helopilot59 Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 I work at the boneyard in Tucson Az, and I'm sad to say we are starting to get AV-8s in for storage. I will have to check them out and see where they are from. I really enjoy this airplane in DCS and it is a shame to know it won't be active much longer. :(

eaglecash867 Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Maybe the jets themselves can be resurrected and fly another day. We're in the process of getting a couple of C-145As from AMARC flying again. Heh, the 145 definitely isn't a fun or glamorous plane by any stretch of the imagination though.

A Hamburgler Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 There contract does not end till late 2020s so they will be around for a little longer.
helopilot59 Posted May 30, 2018 Author Posted May 30, 2018 I coordinated AMARG's interaction with the contractors on those 145s. I made sure they had everything they needed to get them out.
helopilot59 Posted May 30, 2018 Author Posted May 30, 2018 @ Razor- I'm a Lead Scheduler out there. I flew with you guys in IL-2 and had a blast, but had a bunch of other stuff going and had to drop. I still interact with Ted and Gene( can't remember Gene's call sign).
AG-51_Razor Posted May 30, 2018 Posted May 30, 2018 Was it Strator or Revo? If you ever get the urge to fly with us again, we spend a fair amount of time in the Harrier. Of course, that will change a bit, for a while anyway, once the Hornet is out. You're always welcome. :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Harrier VTOL aerobatics will become a sport some day, anyone would be able to fly one.:book: [sIGPIC] [/sIGPIC]
helopilot59 Posted May 31, 2018 Author Posted May 31, 2018 Strator. That's it. I don't think he is flying much. He does alot of car racing. I've only got about 12-15 hours in the harrier. Have to get better before I go multiplayer again. I was doing alot with the F-86 and MIG 15. I will probably look you all up again when my proficiency increases. You guys were really patient and helpful. I had never done multiplayer before, and you guys made it enjoyable.
AG-51_Razor Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 That's why we do it man, to enjoy ourselves!! Whenever you get the urge, give us a shout! :thumbup: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
