My avatar is a picture of my uncle from his 1945 Tuskegee graduation class. While he never saw action I've been inspired to fly WWII sims ever since I learned he was a Tuskegee Airmen. One of the first Airmen squads was the 99th.

I studied geology @ U of Washington in Seattle. Obsidian is a volcanic rock that can form when basaltic lava is erupted into the air. It cools so quickly it takes on a glass like form. Early man discovered that it could be chipped and formed to make very sharp spear and arrow heads.

So 99th in homage to my late uncle and my online squadron and Obsidian, the deadly black arrowhead.

one of my favorite movies of WWII planes and squadrons, what I really like about them is their battlefield march song:
"contact joystick back
sailing through the blue
brown men tried and true
We are heroes of the night
the Hell with Axis might
fight fight fight fight
fighting 99th

Rat Tat, Rat Tat Tat
down in flames they go
fighting men of the 99th
send them down below
for we are heores of the night
the Hell with Axis might
fight fight fight fight
fighting 99th..."
As a matter of fact, I just recently purchased a RC foam ultramicro p51 D and modified it to a p51B and named it "Inna the macon Belle" in the memory of the first African American Ace Lt Lee Archer 1 of the gruesom twosome fighters of the 332nd fighter group. Cant remember which class from Tuskegee but i'm sure he wasn't from the first 6 classes that formed the 99th fighter group commanded by Benjaming O. Davis Jr.

Mine was a quick choice, some friends had xbox live before myself and they all recognise my car reg number, so in my wisdom I matched it with my name so when I joined them on my first evening of live they would know it was me.
Yes I could of just sent them a message but there you go.
Its pronouced MATT.X.Y.O not all one word!
I was going to change it but it grew on me.

I have always been a U2 fan since the late 70's (yea they been around that long) and although The Edge(Dave Evens) is not the greatest guitar player, he is the master of the effects pedals. ("It might get Loud" check it out) and a play on the album:"Rattle And Hum" I figure if I'm going to play this game there is going to be alot of rattling in my cockpit while getting shot down. [my favorit album is "The Unforgetable Fire"] THANKS for this post some great back grounds on the user names.
