Date: Saturday 25th June*

the story :
As part of Project Julius a new Chinook CH-47F transport helicopter has crashed while on a test flight. Due to the fact that Boeing's new digital flight-control systems have been fitted to this aircraft, the recovery is a priority mission.
The reason for the crash is unknown at this time.
There will be a number of teams on the field with the task of recovering these parts.
More infomation to follow !

I have the clone from ebaybanned - have it a couple of years and it's still going strong, but I know some guys have had no luck with them.

If I had the money to waste (or if/when my existing one dies), I'll get the TM but I've been lucky with the cheapie so far...

On that note - anyone fancy being a spotter?

I'm out. American football game on the other side of the country.

Sorry Dave, looks like you'll need to find someone else who can accurately name every single part on a Chinook to convincingly play a pilot...

The man might be charming and clever, but he couldn't hit the back door of a barn with a bazooka.

He also knew absolutely nothing about Chinooks, apart from how to get in and out of them.

Good evening to one and all,
As you can see (look out the window ) the weather is sh*t and the weather forecast for the weekend doesn't look the greatest. Therefore this event may be postponed. Tomorrow I will post at 1600 if this is so. (PM me your phone number and I'll text you the update ).

David

Yes I am a fair weather Airsofter !!!!

defenderdude

I'm in Galway again this weekend (daughter in the Gaeltacht) and unfortunately cannot make this game.

While I hope the weather improves for you all - deep down, I hope it's postponed and I can get to go and fight all night... (sorry):o

If it goes ahead - have a great one.
See y'all soon (been too long)

the ground is going to be super saturated from all the rain and night games you do spend a lot of time "dug in" IMHO I think a rain off is due, yes I'm a fair weather gamer too, but most importantly I don't like wet socks........ I think a delay of two weeks would be an ideal plan,not availible next week and it's all about me
