Hey everyone. PBF 6.02 is winding down here with only a little over 5 days left for flying reports to be turned in (Narratives may be submitted up until the Jan. 30, Midnight EST). As a fleet we have added 10 more reports to the 11 that I reported last week. This brings us to 21 total, but only 42% of the 50 pilots holding roster slots. The holidays are over people, I know we can do better than this!

I have been very happy to see a number of old timers jump back into the swing of things and get reports in early (you know who you are, and I know that you hate me and my nagging... meh, its for your own good).

With Snaps turning in a very solid run today, Fireclaw (5) has pulled to within one report of Gold (6). Blue has grabbed hold of the third spot with 4 reports, and are followed by Crimson (3), Green (2), and then Red (1). Phoenix has so far been hanging out with the lone goose egg in the cellar.

PBF MERITS

The PBF Command group has been discussing a possible change the the upper tier of the PBF Merits. The proposal would revise a some of the levels, add new levels, and push the cap level of [PBF-Jedi Legend-] to around 250 (tentatively). The Command group has also been tossing the idea around concerning a revising of the merit points earned per mission based on flying reports, narratives reports, etc. Keep on the lookout for more in the near future.

Squad and Wing CS, make sure you get your people reporting! If you hold a Command Staff position, and have yet to turn in a report, get on your horse and fly the mission. Set a good example for those under your command. We only managed 30 reports for 6.01, so we sure as hell better pass that mark.

NOW GO FLY!!!

Light Four in the Green, and Good Luck!!!
