Dean "Bravo" Marsh

Hi Guys thought I would tell you a little about myself.  I live in Calgary, Alberta; I?m married and have a 16 year old son.  I joined the reserve services at the age of 16, the 20th Independent Field battery(Artillery).

I then signed up for the regular forces, Canadian Air force as an Aero Engine Tech 511; I was based at Canadian Forces Base Cold Lake, Alberta during the Gulf War.  I was attached to two different squadrons while I was posted there; I worked on (CF-5 and the CF-18 Hornet) with 200 hrs of backseat time during test flights and air shows.

I left the Air Force, and become a peace officer, serving in different capacities and communities.  I have been flying Sims since 1984, Falcon ect??...(not as long as Jody).
I'm here to learn, observe and stay clear of any POLITICAL BULLSHIT.  I have had the pleasure of getting to know some of you, and chatting on the phone with certain individuals.   I really appreciate everyone?s understanding and patience (I?m using VISTA OH Boy).

I recently have been given the opportunity to join the 157th Virtual Fighter Swamp Foxes, A real HONOR.  I?m in the process of building a new computer and going back to XP.  So again I want to say THANK YOU to all my new friends.  JAY and MIKE thanks for your patience.  I have include a few photo?s

Take care,

Dean ?Bravo? MARSH

Dean,

Wow, great post and pics dude..  That is quite the chopper you built, wow!  Well we all look forward to flying with you as soon as you get XP again.

I will be heading up to Calgary this summer as I have a brother up that way.  You, Vexx and I should get together!

Catch you in the air soon!

Outstanding, you sound like my kind of people.  That RC Helo looks damn cool, i'd love to get into that hobby...another expensive hobby.

I've been toying with the idea of getting into RC aircraft.  If I understand correctly, helos are the MOST DIFFICULT things to fly.  I'm actually thinking of flying RC jets with those new turbo-fan motors but to start I'll go for some prop-based A/C.

Very cool toys Bravo!

Hey Dean,

Good post, welcome to the real fighter's den We've already met, but it's good to see some mugshots !

That helo looks awesome (I fly electric myself, or at least I try to keep it off the ground in every possible manner). Although I would not be opposed to give your patrol car a spin either

You should hook up with ValkyrieOden - Calgary resident as well, and great producing all sorts of stuff for the pit

So many of you have actually been flying jets - I hope that by the time I reach a thousand posts here, someone surprises me with a 'free ride in a jet' voucher

Once again, welcome !

Kim.

Take Care
