ok sherlock so I miss spelled pidgeon,
Want to go 2 sqdn coz I got the guts to give it a try,
To be honest hoon the goon and his merry band of budget slashers have even threatened the airborne role of the paras so Im not surprised to heare the storys about him having a go at 2 sqdn!
and as for the lead on clay pidgeon shooting with enemy aircraft, the answer is a lot, or increase the lead if you see the traser falling short!
also, this is a discussion forum, not an operational squadron, so my attitude is not an issue!

"coz you got the guts to give it a try" wow. your sf material.
hey whats leading? because i didnt know how to adjust my aim on moving targets. whats a "traser" too? ive only used tracers. <---this is called sarcasm.
yeah its a discussion forum - thats about all you've been right on so far. your attitude is an issue because your constantly pissing off those who have been and done what you WANT to do "coz you've got the guts".

Greenhill - "leaving me with GPMG, pebbles, spit etc to defend with", which particular skys are you currently defending on our behalf then son, because unless I am terribly mistaken you work in an outward bound shop or something?? And well done for telling TJD (who is I think a serving gnr) that he is right, fella I think he may know just a little bit more than you !!!!! As for II Sqn - no f*****g chance mate, you'd last five mins!!!

Since when did "Sqn" become "Sqdn"
This drill bit is a constant source of morale
