[OOC] Ace Combat: The Global War

[Rhona W]

Oh, I think I got confused then. My bad.
I'm really failing hard at the moment. Maybe I should just shut up.

[Rafale]

Happens to everyone, don't get too bothered about it.

[Lost Cause]

Hm... Really not looking forward to trying to get Miku's plane landed.

Even if we have the perfect soundtrack choice for the moment.

[Rafale]

I'm not looking forward to figuring out how to get that thing repaired in less than two hours.

[Lost Cause]

Swap the engine and patch the elevator linkage. Assuming nothing else goes wrong.

But if she's grounded, she's grounded. Partly because I was planning to have her go into some sort of nervous lockdown once it's all over.

[The Mage]

I might have mine grounded or such..... depending on how much credits we get. if we get enough for a new plane, great

[Rafale]

Well, unfortunately for you two, here's the gist of what's to come.

We return to base after the reinforcements from McNealy AFB arrive, we land for about one hour as the base personnel rearm, refuel and repair our aircraft and give a short briefing, then we're immediately back up in the air for an emergency mission. Remember those "other attacks" the Enemy Air mentioned?

[Lost Cause]

OK, I guess the PTSD will have to wait.

Maybe there's some spare F-5s or something in the hangar.

[Rafale]

We shall see! ;)

[The Mage]

well, this is going to be fun!

Maybe there's a Bulldog or two lying around ;)

[Rafale]

Slap some QAAM's on it and you're good to go!

[The Mage]

that's why I want the Su-47 :)

[TheFake]

Every time I sit down to write a post I end up looking at aircraft pictures for an hour.

Managed to find an interesting pic of a Jaguar with wingtop pylons:

[Rafale]

I always found that fascinating. You can use that as an excuse to carry a few more missiles in the RP, if you'd like. I'm fine with it.

[Lost Cause]

Yes, that's how RAF Jaguars carried their AAMs; the underside hardpoints were used for drop tanks and air-to-surface weapons.

The Jag is one of my all-time favourite fighter jets, BTW.

[Rhona W]

Overwing pylons are a Jaguar speciality :D
I actually really like the Jag. I remember seeing them at airshows before they retired them from RAF service :(
And trying to teach an American pilot how to say 'Jag-u-ar' the English way, which he took in very good humour.

Actually, I really like counter-insurgency light attack aircraft and close-air-support aircraft that are prop powered as well as jets ^^;; the OV-10 Bronco and IA-58 Pucara are two of my favourites. I guess I'm more of a mud-mover than a dog fighter.

might give me that needed edge until I get something a little nicer. Gonna go take a look at my character sheet because i have a sneaking suspicion that I put down the weapons pylon count rather than the payload weight.

Don't forget the granddad of both, the L-19 Bird Dog. No guns but it did wonders for guiding other attack craft. A Local airfield uses them to tow gliders.

The Lightning had them too, I think, but only for fuel tanks.

And before anyone asks the only reason why Miku isn't flying a Jag is because the only picture I found for her that I liked was in a Navy uniform.

In Depth Physical Description:

Personality: Elizabeth is a very collected person. Always seeming calm in the most extremes of danger. But Alexander has seen her flip out. She is a thinker, always thinking how to conduct her actions and aiming to complete missions with precision. She hates wasteful actions such as firing a missile that doesn't hit or bullets that don't hit their mark. But its not just in combat, she hates seeing half eaten food get tossed away or only half a piece of paper get used. She will try to intercept the person to stop them and take it. If not, she will glare at the person till they are out of her sight, and then she will instantly forget about the situation and go back to what she was doing.

But Elizabeth is a very closed person. Alexander is the only who knows about her past, but is not allowed to talk about it to others. He learned that the hard way with a 9-Iron delivered into the back of his leg. She will never openly talk about her past and if anyone gets a hold of one of her personal Journals...well, lets not talk about that anymore

History: Elizabeth met Alexander in June. Assigned to be his first, and only squad member. She was still fresh, her handling on flying was unsteady and nervous. But over the years. As months went by, she grasped the concept of flying, and also gave birth to her unhealthy habit of non-wastefulness. She had never met Alex's Co-Pilot, but could tell his loss had an effect of Alex. Mainly his loss of his past.

3 years later, they made the decision to split from the 6th Air Division, becoming mercs. Working as a team to get the job done. They will take jobs so long as the pay is high. She lets Alex do most of the talking, seeing as he talks a lot anyway. But if she has to, she will talk, but in a very quiet and slightly irritated tone. She feels a strong bond to Alex, like a brotherly bond. She swore to herself that she'd never die in combat, so he would not have to deal with another loss. But she has always wondered if he valued her.

Extra Information: Only time she's visibly smiled is when Alexander got his two missile-three kills thing.
Other than that, she likes to read books, and write in her personal journal (on her third one now)
She loves the colors Green, Black, and Maroon
