To whom it may concern,

I may solve this problem on my own by the time you get this message, however I am having difficulty in finding what my last assignment is and can't seem to get the pilot's handbook up for some reason. I surely don't know what I'm doing wrong?

Sorry to you again Mr, Willtconq.

Not trying to be funny or anything at all, but perhaps instead of criticizing me you might help me.

I have looked at your profile and post and you are great man. Help me be just almost as great.

Also, if you don't want me in your squadron, I'm sure someone else might. I'm sorry I'm if you think I'm that bad.

Like I don't have feelings or anything. Duh Thanks.

Hey cool Cy,

You know I didn't mean to come across as I did. I respect Wiltconq in the utmost way. I just want to be respected too. And accepted, if you know what I mean. And I think he's the greatest. However,

You have always been able to explain things to me; i.e.your'e a good trainer.

My last goal. The Aviators exam?  I can't seem to find it. Either give me help there or give me the gist of it. I clicked on the wiki site no luck I went to naval acadamy no luck. Things don't seem to be popping up on my computer like they used to. Give me a short cut if you can. I mean I don't want to take a short cut just tell me what's up. I take the long cut from there. Thanks Cyleaf.

Thanks Wilt, your the coolest.

It too late now I have to go to bed and work in the morning, but I'll let you know

Thanks again

I got it Jaden. Thanks to my commanding officer, I now have all the questions written down.

Wow, Will that's allot of studying to do. I know some of the answers just from basic comprehension, and one or two from reading the pilot handbook and the naval academy lines i.e.Vectra is the planet and system we are training on. It is also home base for the V.E.N., however I could use a little help with some of the other answers.

I don't expect anyone to give them to me, just maybe tell me where to go to read up and find them.

I kind of agree with what you were trying to say before about new recruits needing more training, before, being thrown into a squadron. I just wrote some good lines and here I am trying to surf my way thru your various sites.

Fortunately, for you, I'm rather intelligent and a quick learner. On the other hand, that could be what Jaden is trying to accomplish. Either you fly or die. He may be weeding out the incompetents from the Naval Academy.

If, for some reason, that is the case, and I don't make it here, I really like this site so please let me try my hand at storm trooper.
However, I have real flight training and a vast knowledge of really insignificant B.S. to pull this off.

Etan, we won't turn you down or anything, even if you don't pass, which is a very unlikely thing, we'll just make you do it again, until you pass.

If you think that's a lot, trust me, there's 3 or 4 more tests to go through before one can become a full fledged officer. Personally, I still have 2 more to go through. and the questions become harder and require more detailed answers as they go up. like short essay questions. Not that I'm trying to scare you or anything, just laying out the facts. Just do your best on this one, and let us know if you need help.

i'm pretty sure you're supposed to email your answers to Shazam, Jaden, and/or someone else. But don't post them in here. You wouldn't want to make yours a cheat sheet for future recruits now, would you?  The questions thingy, i'm not sure.

"Remember to send this to the training officer by one means or another and to inform the training staff that you have completed it in your thread in the Naval Academy so that it does get checked. Congratulations on completion of the test; the best to you." to quote it. So send it to Shazam by email. you should be able to find it, it's everywhere...

And not to toot my own horn but, I had seen alot of noobs entries before mine and now it seems as if I have standardized a new log catch phrase. Not that I was the first, by no means, it just seems that most new applicants are all saying "Reporting for Duty now."

I think it's cool. It pretty much sums up what the new entry is trying to express, without undo narrative. And not that everyone is doing it, you still see the occasional " OH HEY I'M NEW HERE", but more new members are becoming more standardized, thus trainable.

I think we should have a more formal entrance exam/form to fill out. I know how much work Kadaan, Shazaam, Jaden and alot of the rest of you have done on this site, so I don't blame you for leaving it as is.

No you didn't  misinterpret sir, but now that you have explained it that way, I understand. You have to understand me first. I like order. Standardization? A set of rules for us all to adhere to. Maybe a standardized form to complete upon entering.

I'm not bucking the system by any means. Or meaning to rile feathers. It's just when I just joined, I felt kinda lost. And well, just have had to kinda figure out a bunch of this stuff by myself. And still am. In the very short time I have been here I have seen so many recruits post then go. Maybe if there was some sort of standardization, more would stay. Get my meaning?

Anyway I'm still here, and not giving up, as I just think so many new recruits might do when they get frustrated. This maybe a way of weeding out the weak. If so, it's a good thing.

Well commander Shazaam, and hopefully for all new recruits to see, I have finally passed my Aviators exam and have been promoted to leading crewman.

It's not that hard really. Just use your imagination and do a modicum of studying. I just hate to see so many new recruits come in and then give up.And I have seen alot of names just within the last month.

That is why I am making one last post here before I move on to the Senior Aviator's Exam, for every new member to read, hopefully.

As Commander Shazaam says, just KEEP ROCKIN. The people here will be tough on you, but they will also help you. I wish I could make this a seperate post, but I don't want to take up the space.

Just remember, READ BEFORE YOU POST. I have already made that mistake several times, and then felt like an Idiot afterwards.

(Reedited after Shazaam's next post. To correct certain inefficiencies.) because I said this would be my last post here.
Just one more lesson to be learned here.Be true to your word and your words will be true to you. Over and out, next time you see me it will be in space.
