Hi streak!
Is your server up?? (I have fond memories from a couple of years ago)

The Belgrano sinking is still a HOT topic here in Argentina, and many people (mostly not in the military) think the attack was a war crime
Speaking only for myself, I have the same opinion as the Belgrano commander, Captain Bonzo: The Belgrano was a (proud) weapon system in a war mission, so she was a legitimate target.
Someone infra (below in latin) commented about the Argentinian navy performance (or lack of) in the South Atlantic War. About this service (my service) I only could comment the exceptional performance of
Naval Aviation (you could credit Ardent, Atlantic Conveyor and Sheffield)
Marines (BIM 5 - Marine Infantry Battallion nº5- at Tumbledown was considered the best unit of the defenders)
Submarine Force (ARA San Luis was active almost all the conflict, stalking the fleet and launching attacks in at least 2 occasions, even with innefective SST-4 torpedoes and a broken fire computer)
About the fleet, without means against nuclear submarines, what else could do?
Finally, no war is a football match, some of the posts in this thread are very disgusting.

Hi Streak, thanks for the info and congratulations for the baby!
Maybe it´s time to upgrade. I´m still running SF:P1, so for now I´m outta business.
A little story: Back in 2004 I used to join your Project 1 server at 9-10pm ET (I usually picked the A4 Super Echo). One time, TimCanada, you and me were dogfighting and I recalled that I had to call my girlfriend (now wife) so I landed the plane and took it to the tarmac. Then I called her.
I assume you and Tim did the same. And I don´t know if you or Tim took a pic of the three planes parked, and posted it in this forum.
A week later, I showed the pic to my girlfriend. During a month from that day, she always asked me "Have you parked your plane to call me??"
