Euro practice Sat 19/04/08

Ok 1st of the newly reintroduced Euro practices today. Sat on the tarmac for half an hour with no pilots showing up. Just about to pack it in when Bry-Z showed up. Fair play to him, at least he's dedicated enough to make it - respect m8. Where was everyone else!! Burton emailed me with real life issue - fair enough - but the rest of Blue wing?

I'm happy to admit that these times will take time to become established but I need to see people turning up or it will again fizzle out. 10am UK time for practice was identified because all non US based pilots should be able to make it. Pilots in Aus/NZ etc are roughly 9 - 10 hours ahead of UK time which makes it early evening in my reckoning. Pilots in far east less so but still in late afternoon i think.

I don't mind people not being able to attend but I do mind no communication about it when I get up early and put myself out to attend and hardly anyone attends. Why can't people just email/post on forums? If people want to belong to a squad they should respect their fellow members by communicating with them - its definitely not too much to expect in my opinion.

Practices will continue at 8pm Weds UK time

and 10am Sat UK time for the foreseeable future.

Please Blue Wing pilots respond to this post..I want to know what your opinions/intentions are re: practices.

Over and out
