Belsnian forces chaotically retreat to the nearest FOB. The objective was partially completed, but at what cost? Soldiers of the parachute regiment are given a 2 months leave.

Belsnian citizens begin to question Belsnia's involvement and sacrifice in Vierte.

Meanwhile, this song is broadcasted in honor of the deceased personel.

Troops relax after having arrived at the FOB.

Recently, a Belsnian force of various units engaged agaisnt a slevokxian force of mainly infantry and aircraft. The Belsnians had an upper hand, but the Slevokxians held their positions well, forcing a minor withdrawal of Belsnian units.

Belsnian paratroopers have landed with the intent of taking out marine fortifications of Slevokxia. Results of the operation will be posted later.

The bolt action infantry are hilarious. They're like ballerinas trying to shoot down clouds with auto bolt actions.

Am I the only one that likes flight decks without MFDs/computer screens? Just seems more natural to me.

Images from the front!

Belsnian armor rolls through Yaslovakian streets quickly advancing on enemy units.



Belsnian troops are inspected upon arrival by Yaslovakian and Belsnian officers.

In retaliation of the raid, Belsnian units garrisoned in the Yaslovakian airbases prepare for a counter-attack.

Thing is, Night, that pilots are trained for those crash landing situations/avoiding mid air collisions. And if the pilot is smart (most pilots ((hue))) he'll get flight following from an air traffic controller even if its a beautiful day. Which leads me to my next point, collision unlikliness due to air traffic controllers. Cars are just easier to operate/control if something goes wrong. Aircraft maitenence laws are extremely strict, which also bumps down chances of mechanical failure.

Aircraft accidents = more avoidable by professionals and aren't easy to survive
Auto accidents = less avoidable, but easier to survive.

Personally, I think airline salty roasted peanuts are amazing. Also, nothing better than sipping on a coke at 30,000 feet.

I found a couple images of the plane on my phone. Just gonna post their actual size so you can see stuff. With special guest, a leg. Pics are from when I flew to Amarillo, most likely to grab some breakfast from the cafe on the airport. (English field house, if you live near Rick Husband International I'd suggest it. Great view of the airport.)
