I had a couple of questions regarding the Bombs Away campaign, but it seems like TreeCat has not been around this site for the last three months!



Does anybody know where he is at?

Cheers!

His whereabouts are a mistery....

If he doesn't show up soon, both Jean-Luc and I nominate you to take over as campaign leader..... how do you like them apples!

Hi Björn and Frank!

Frank, I think Polarbear is already leader of the "Suez" Campaign... so YOU would be the right man for this one... if Treecat doesn't show up meanwhile of course...

I'll make a deal with you Jean-Luc.... if by some chance Treecat remains AWOL, I will (if there are no objections) take over,.... but only if you help me out with the ribbon and the fancy Campaign poster art, that you do so well.....

This is not the first time a campaign leaders disappear. The only one we haven't been able to scare off lately is Jean-Luc!

How strange!!!! First, I received word that the Suez campaign was not approved! (I'm not really sure why, but I believe all the aircraft campaign spots were taken when I applied). I had totally given up on the idea - And now all over sudden I find out that it is an active campaign?!?! Starting ten days from now!!

Well, I'm going to try to get it properly started! I once had quite a few potential participants and hopefully, they are still interested! Since it is the 50th anniversary of the Suez conflict AND since the Suez conflict featured some of the coolest aircraft ever built, the campaign simply have to be run!!!

Thus, the Official Thread of the Suez campaign will start in a few days!

Well... Seems like we caught you with a little lie there, Frank... :-)

I was actually prepared to step in (provided that the salary was ok, and that there was a good retirement plan and free dental), but if Clanky volonteers, I'm sure he'll do a fine job!
(Questions remains though - Can he be trusted!?!)

I should suggest that you start by opening an Official Thread for the Bombs Away campaign and gather everyone that has signed up. I have already seen some great entries!

Cheers!

I'm still trying to find out if My Avenger can make the cut. Even though it is a Single engine aircraft, It was the largest carrier strike aircraft. It carried three men, and could carry torpedoes, or 500lb bombs. My Avenger is the one that President (then LT JG) George HW Bush Flew during the strike on Chichi Jima, when he was shot down. The plane he was flying was armed with bombs.

Hi Frank!

It's ok for me but you have to ask Guntruck first as he his the Campaign "Master". I also think a ribbon was already designed, but I'm not sure about that...
Björn, I think Frank can be trusted. Let's see this as a constructive lie :-)

I have notified both Merlin and GunTruck regarding TreeCats' absence. If they are both fine with my temporary placement then I will post up a 'Bombs Away' thread where we can begin to download our progress photos.
