Bombcat joined the YS forums in 2006, and has since distinguished himself as a capable multirole combat pilot. His place within the community has been colored by his membership within the 171st, first as a junior pilot, and eventually as the commanding officer, CAG-171. He's the CO of VFA-165, the Black Aces, and can often be found flying an F-14D on strike missions, dogfighting experienced squadmates, or practicing carrier landings. When not flying a Navy fighter, he'll often take a Cessna 182 on a pleasant cruise around the Hawaiian islands. Bombcat is an occasional modder, with public releases including a commemorative VF-17 F/A-18F, a navalized P-51B Mustang, and the SOS brigade's Deathliners. He is an avid kit-basher, and has a large fleet of semi-complete/unreleased mods, notably the F-24 Ocelot, F-19 Dagger, and a monstrous Hellcat/Typhoon combination fighter. Hopefully, most if not all of these mods will one day see the light of day. Close associates within the YS community include Iceman, Seraphim, Animal, SvenPhantom, Sentinel182, Shutter, Vandal, and the entire 171st. He strongly supports the 241st, and hopes that all YS squadrons may succeed as far as they are able. Since February 2011, Bombcat has served as a founding admin of the YS Headquarters forum, where he acts principally as the combat moderator. Bombcat's interests include Naval Aviation, cats of all kinds, history,and military technology. Greetings,comrades! =^w^= ~~
