"For the next month, 20 Falastine fighter pilots and 100 other pilots, the best of their kind from 5 other Air Forces, will participate in the biggest air combat exercise ever held in the world. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Operation Red Flag."

For the next 4 weeks, the Falastine Air Command will again prove that it is one of the smallest, but best air forces yet. Dreamt of following the footsteps of Major Al-Hijazi? Well this is your chance. F-16 and Su-30 Squadrons must send the name of their nominated pilot to Yasser Arafat Airbase by Sep-"

Captain Aboo Bakr switched off the TV. It has been his ultimate dream to participate in that prestigious exercise. Who participated in Red Flag would be the talk of the Squadron for the next 4 months. That is, if you did well.

He looked at his Su-30. It has been the dream of all aspiring Falastine pilot-wannabes to fly the Su-30, as it is the plane used for dogfighting, and Su-30s had downed numerous planes in previous wars. Those who didn't make it had to settle for the F-16 and Apaches and attack bunkers and tanks on the ground instead.

He had to participate in Red Flag. He had to. The 10 Nablusi aircraft kills on his plane weren't for fun.

OOC:Anybody interested? 20 pilots per nation, up to 5 nations allowed. Anyway Major (Ret.) Al-Hijazi is the Falastine "Ace of Aces", having holding the record for number of planes shot, which is 50.

OOC: Is there a certain aircraft we have to use?

OOC: No, but it should be MT. no lasers and what not, realism must be there,

DMG might be interested in joining (we would be using our new F-90 Guardian Angel that is being tested as we speak)

To: Domonion of DMG

The Falastine Air Command eagerly awaits the arrival of DMG pilots but we must inform you that only facilities will be provided. Thus you will have to bring ground crew to service the aircraft and maintain traffic in the vicinity. Also, only a maximum of 20 pilots from each country are able to participate in Red Flag.

Ahmed El-Kadeer
Defence Minister
Falastine High Command

Phoenixius would be willing to send pilots, flying some of our brand new aircraft (OOC: if I finish the design before this starts), unless unforseen incidents force us to use our older models instead. PLease could you send the start date of this event, so that we may ship the aircraft and ground crews with plenty if time to spare.

ooc: what exactly will the RP be? Will it be an allout air superiority battle, last man standing wins? or what?

Jenrak's airforce is incredibly small, but used for specific purposes. We shall bring forth our best pilot, Denise Territurari, to participate. She will be in a modified fighter, based of Mauiowee designs.

OOC:Yes, it is an air superiority battle, there will be duels in a "league" based on a modified knockout system.

To: Jenrak

We invite the Air Force of Jenrak with open arms but for your airforce to utilise this exercise effectively and beneficially, we require you to send a team of 10 to 20 pilots over to Yasser Arafat airbase in Falastinia.

Comrade Ahmed,

The Armed Repuplic of Noddestan does not have an airforce and so you would suspect that we have no place at an event such as Red Flag. However, many of our military personnel are interested in aircraft and the Noddestan government has been thinking for a long time about setting up an airbase and forming an airforce.

I would therefore very much like to send a party of senior military officials from Noddestan to observe Red Flag and interact with the more advanced nations who will be attending in the hope of making some contacts.

I look forward to hearing from you on this matter.

Tobias Juggski
Minister of Defence
Phoenixian Province of Noddestan

To: Falastinia
From: The Incorporated States of SkyCapt

We have seen your invitation to Operation Red Flag. If slots are still open, we will be sending a squadron of our top pilots, who will be flying F-24 Delta Interceptors.

OOC: Would a remotely controlled UAV be accepted as an entry?

Dear Sir Juggski,

We extend a warm welcome to the military offcials of Noddestan to come and view this event. We assure that quality food, lodging and bodyguard service will be provided, and if it is possible, we will give some of your officials rides in tandem-seated Falastine Su-30s and experience the astounding "360 degree Cobra" maneuver that few planes can do.

The Falastine High Command is willing to send a team of fighter pilots and analysts to assist the formation of a Noddestani air force, still in its state of infancy.

We hope that this will greatly improve diplomatic ties with Noddestan.

Regards,
Ahmed El-Kadeer
Defence Minister
Falastine High Command

OOC:
Phoenixius: We will start when all the slots are filled up, all nations participating will teceive a telegram a day before the start of the exercise.

Axis Nova: No, only fighter planes are allowed.

To: States Of SkyCapt

We warmly welcome your 20 pilots and ground crew, we will inform you of the exercise when all slots are filled up.

Regards,
Ahmed El-Kadeer
Defence Minister
Falastine High Command

OOC: Skycapt: Typo. Sorry.

OOC: Oh, um, just to clear things up, our squadrons are made up of 20 pilots. I know what RL squadron sizes are, so don't correct me or anything...

Message From: Stevid MoD
To: Falastinia

If places are still available, then Stevid would be happy to atend in this major event.

If there are places then Stevid will be sending only ten (yes only ten sorry) of our best fighter pilots. The aircraft will be Tornadoe F3 Air Superiority figher aircraft.

If there are no places then Stevid would be hounered if certain selected member were to attend the event.

We await your reply with great anticipation.
