Thread: Promotion to Flight Leader in the South East of England Squadron

  1. #1

    Default Promotion to Flight Leader in the South East of England Squadron

    I was perusing the U.K. Members List as of Dec 2014 this morning and realised there is someone worthy of promotion to Flight Leader lurking amongst the men of the south east - someone with a proven track record I think you will agree...
    A quick word with Wingco received the "Approved and rubber stamped 03/07/15" response desired to correct my previous oversight

    I am therefore very pleased to announce that Tim aka 'Flying Helmut' is promoted to Flight Leader for the Middlesex Flight with immediate effect... congratulations old chap, thoroughly deserved and long overdue (my fault!)

    Well deserved Tim but has Dave mentioned that every flight leader must have a SoG ship for demo games at shows as well as aircraft?

    Seeing this has just made my day! Like It ...

    PS - If every Flight Leader must have a SoG ship for demo games at shows as well as aircraft Ares Games will have to start producing Dreadnoughts.

    Interesting. I thought the promotion was to Flight Leader, not Flotilla Commander or some such...

    Perhaps someone is confused? Or too many G&Ts in the senior officers?
