Phantom Squadron Report
Captain Aeolus reporting in for Phantom Squadron on Nov. 9th, 2003,
Greetings everyone. Got some good news and some bad as far as real life is
concerned. Good news first, the Ducks won against Cal! Then, the new Matrix
movie wasn't all that bad, and then in bad news my graphics drivers on my
computer were, as Rise of Nations put it "invalid". Then an IRC trojan virus
was unleashed and caused havoc on every front. Six hours and a reformat later my
computer is squeakly clean and happy as a butterfly. Whatever that means,
anyways... you probably don't care so lets get on with todays report!
In Fleet News:
- A new FOA was chosen. A congrats out to LC Styles who is the new Flight
Office lacky.
- Last week a new TIE Fighter patch was released but this week it is for the
Balance of Power expansion on X-Wing vs Tie Fighter as well as for X-Wing vs
Tie Fighter itself. For those who play this the patch is available at the
science office webpage.
- The Vanguard needs a new webpage and they have called on the entire Fleet
to get themselves one. The competition details can be found here:

- The Star Wars Trilogy has been set for release on Sept. 9th in DVD format.
Meaning I no longer have to go to my TV and put it into my VCR to watch it
every Saturday. *grin*
- The CA:TAC resigned this past week. I've heard that Vice Admiral Philo has
done some great work. Good luck to him in the future.
- Lastly, for you XvT users, XvT TC #28 has been rereleased for your flying
pleasures, enjoy.
In Wing News and Activities:
- Phantom Squadron was Squadron of the Month for October. I owe my
thanks mostly to the previous commander, LC Boliv for this. But I congratulate
every one of you on this acheivement. I only hope we can keep this honor
through the busy holiday seasons. *salute*
- The Commodores protector for October was Major Mosh, congratulations to
him and may he keep our fearless leader safe.
- The Great Wing Bash is over this past week and results are out. We got
second place. Which isn't bad. Congratulations to LCM Ryan who got the high
score in XWA. Great work to him as he has an IS-GW coming to him for his
acheivements. Also an IS-SW coming to Nuno for his second placement in XWA as
well. I got the low score, you all have permission to request drinks of me for
this. Maybe I won't get last next time.
- Locke is on leave and during his leave LC Boliv is A:COM.
In Squadron News and Activities:
- A new competition is out. The Phantom Mottos competition. If you have some
spare time come up with some mottos and earn some medals. I believe the
nicknames go with the mottos. I guess that's a detail that needs to be worked
out.
- While we got Squadron of the Month for October. It's time to start working
on November. Good luck to everyone!
- I am working on some flying competitions. Not necessarily with other
squadrons at this time but I'll definitly look into it. If anybody has
recommendations feel free to share them.
- Tygra is doing great work with citation assignments. Pay attention to
these and help the squadron earn new citations. The information is available
in Tygra's XO report each week.
