The USS Harry S Truman is back at PIM off the coast of Virginia. NAS Oceana
is closed for all operations due to runway maintenance so I suggest you conduct
CQ currency on the boat until Saturday 19DEC when we will be conducting an
Air Wing Fly-Off back to KNTU (tentatively scheduled for 1900z). At PIM 1 you
are authorized to begin flying on VATSIM again so don't forget to file your
flightplans.
BRAVO ZULU!!!
