Well done mate

The squadron is now involved in the Southern Cross war and seems to be doing well in that environment. Wednesdays and Sunday nights are now the preferred nights for flying with good numbers of guys turning out to fly.

I am please to announce the promotion of III/JG11_Paulus to LEUTNANT, well done mate.

Well things have been busy but the squadron is back from leave. 

III/JG11_Slipry and III/JG11_Mutts came to Perth for a visit and to attend a concert. A great time was had by all and thanks to III/JG11_Mike and his lovely wife Gail for putting the boys up. 

The squadron again engaged the lads of the AG51 after Christmas in a hard fought campaign in Scorched Earth Italy map. Special mention to III/JG11_Tige and III/JG11_Slipry for their efforts in bombing the crap out of the allied factories. Well done boys.

At this stage our squadron has decided to take a break from Scorched Earth campaigns on Sunday mornings. 

We would also like to welcome our newest member III/JG11_Kennel, I’m sure he will enjoy his time with us.

Mel C.O.

Well its been another busy couple of months, we welcome a new recruit, III/JG11_Paulus, we sadly lost III/JG11_Charos due to work pressures. We have a new Recruitment Officer in III/JG11_Reaper who was also promoted to the Rank of MAJOR, effective immediately. A number of members were suffering from "IL2 burnout" and as a result the squadron has gone into a holding pattern to give the lads time to recuperate. A new campaign is in the wind thanks to III/JG11_Simmo  which should see us fighting in the Italy map.

Things have been busy with no time to update the homepage until now. The Marianas campaign has finished with the mighty III/JG11 being victorious in a hard fought endeavor.

The Iwo Jima campaign between III/JG11 v AG51 + Black Sheep Squadron + VFC is well underway with JG11 sinking the Saratoga on this weekends mission. A top performance by all pilots almost saw the second carrier being sunk in the same mission. Special mention today for the fighter pilots who more than held their own with III/JG11_Tiger scoring 5 air kills. Well done all.

I am please to announce the following award to Tiger.

 This weekends fight against AG51 saw JG11 attack the Lexington Carrier scoring two bomb hits and engaging the attack armada sent by AG51. Typical of this campaign, long boring flight then flat out action for 20 mins. The campaign is finely balanced and one wrong move by either side could spell disaster.

To celebrate the 5th year the squadron has been in existence a new 5 year badge was struck and distributed to all members of the III/JG11 squadron. I believe its a great effort to keep this squadron going strong for 5 years and its a credit to the members.

A number of lads have or are in the process of upgrading their rigs and it will be good to see some of those on the reserve list back in the fold.

Its with regret that I have removed III/JG11_Para from the squadron but we must have members available and showing dedication to the squadron and sadly in this instance it was lacking. We wish him well and the door is always open for him to return if his situation improves.

 The Marianas campaign is heating up with strikes on the Allied carrier fleets Last week and a retaliation strike this week by the AG51. This campaign has turned into a real cat and mouse affair with both sides doing a top job in attacking and defending.

III/JG11_Davo had an outstanding mission being responsible for sighting the enemy horde and shadowing them and coordinating a well planned strike by the JG11 lads- The AG51 boys suffered greatly with only three pilots surviving the onslaught. As a result I am please to issue this award to III/JG11_Davo.

Well done Davo and all that took part.

 Some real life issues have hit the squadron hard over the last couple of months but I am pleased to see that all appears well and most of the outside personal issues faced by individual squadron members have  abated or been ratified.

During this time the squadron has continued to grow from strength to strength and has engaged in another Scorched Earth campaign against its old foes the Airgroup 51 lads.

III/JG11 won the Stalingrad campaign and from the comments made it seemed to be a fun campaign with much mud slinging between guys.

The Marianas campaign is now underway with a new map of Pearl Harbour being given to us by our mate 4Shades for the next round of hostilities.

Contact has been made with the Fallen Angles lads who seem to have bred well over the last few months, with a view to getting something running, maybe between JG11 + another Aussie squad v the lads from the US. Stay tuned campers.

 The Scorched Earth season has started with a bang, two rounds down see three pilots captured and interrogated,  one allied and two III/JG11 - two pilots talked during the interrogations and one kept his mouth shut. Intelligence has been updated to both sides as a result.

last weeks fight saw III/JG11_Winter back to his old form with 4 enemy air kills, 1 friendly [ his wingman - he claims he wouldn't do as he was ordered so deserved to get shot] and two ground kills. Outstanding effort. III/JG11_Goggo chipped in with 2 air kills and it was a pleasure to see both Winter and Goggo operating as a team.

AG51 were working hard as usual and depleted our bombers and a number of fighters. It was a top fight as expected.

The following pilot is presented the following award, well done mate.
