Sounds like the war on terrorsim is doing ok.

I wish there'd be more news about investigations and arrests of people bank rolling Al Qaeda though. You can never be too sure which on your friendly countries/businessmen are feeding money to Al Qeada.

I have a few questions about the dogfighting. Ive re-read the rules several times and with my brain being dead after a long day at work I'm still confused or maybe I missed something.

I couldn't resist digging this toppic up Hi I've just bought MAS, read the rules and liked it alot, I'm really looking forward to more aircraft mostly older models though. Unlike the posts above, I'm not too keen on the newer high tech stuff being available to mercenaries (thought I don't mind havin...
