-S-
Its been 20 years since the 401st formed, 1998..!!.
I was 39 turning 40 and now I am 60 turning 61..its hard to believe.
When I started on CFS 1 , we had to message each other until "Rodger Wilco" came out and allowed us to talk to each other in air combat..what a change.
Been off line for a couple of years and gust got a new computer ..a I7-8700K cpu, a monster 1080 FTW video card that is VR and tri-monitor plug and play ready, a 500 gig SSD and quite the step up from my first 455mz cpu, 16 gig video card and a 20 gig 7200 rpm hard drive. That was the CFS 1 rig.
Wonder what the next 20 years is going to bring...
Hammer  
P.S. any of you guys form the 401st still here..?

Hey Hammer how are you doing buddy? It's hard to believe it has been 20 years since we formed the 401st. Some good times that I miss very much, working our way up from the bottom to kicking the big boy's butts lol. The zone and all the squad matches and flying with RCAF and Shadow and Euro and HF and UHU and we cannot forget 6 Group. The nights on the zone messing with newby squads and of course the base parties where we would land, drink beer and shoot the s***. All great memories of CFS, but we also moved over to 6 Group and then to FB which was also a blast. I will never forget the missions we would do with 6 Group and we were always the rogue squad and hearing Wonky over comms " Oh s*** it's 401RCAF" lol. I wish I had a dollar for every fighter and bomber I shot down in those days.

Remember the Doolittle Raid? That was epic - all the practice everyone did trying to figure out how to take off from a carrier...
We did the Dambusters raid with 6 Group too I think?
And the Sunday chill out flights with Bush and all the guys from CC.
Not to mention the amount of times I would pick up my entire PC and drive over to Jelly's for some late night fun.... JOPS, COD and BF1942 fun, that is!!  |
