What happened to Friday?
Yep, same question here. I made plans for Saturday night. Oh well.

The Skipper wants the mission flown on Saturday this week regardless if we were trying to revert back to our usual Friday evening events. He has the last word on when Missions are flown. He is trying to gauge how many people will turn out for a mission in numbers considering flying either for a Friday / Saturday turnout.

Lobo, if you got plans for Saturday then go take care of that. No pressure.

Hitcher, If you got plans as well, take care of them. Thanks.

As I said before, the Skipper has last word. I'm just the messenger.

Well, after Wednesdays practice, Lobo and I asked if squad night was going to be Friday or Saturday this weekend and you said Friday. Now you say Saturday. Can you understand why I would ask about the change? It is not likely that I will be here Saturday night depending on weather conditions.
Right thats exactly what happened. I told you that over comms after the fact that you arrived late to training and missed 2/3rds of our Group Training in general with no explanation.

The Skippers Joystick took a dump on him and he had to sign off to try to trouble shoot the problem. It was our intent to resume the weekly campaign mission back to Friday evenings and I was going to verify that with the Skipper. He replied back to me that he wanted the next mission to be flown on Saturday instead regardless of my inquiry into the matter considering your concerns for Friday as well as Lobo and our initial conversation.

At the end of the day, you need to realize that any Mission sortie is subject to a FRAGO. That means that the mission which was intended for a particular day and time may be changed for whatever reason and purpose by the Skipper. Thats the CO's right and privledge. I just post the missions on the schedule and support the Groups plan.

If you have any other concerns regarding this decision, please take it up with either me or the Skipper in private.

Thanks.
