This is under the assumption that the area was a hot zone-- it was not, nor was it a flag in play. But being the squad leader of those assets, you are right, I am responsible for those assets, and I failed to look after them. At the end of the day, I rely on intel given by other squad leaders, and none reported (which was just a BTR) were deemed a problem for me.

You also need to ASK your team for any AA reports,asset reports,enemy reports,speak to the other squad leaders on mumble for reports or locations of potential threats to YOUR asset.
Correct. I'm not sure why you are assuming that I haven't.

You lost the Osprey,it was a accident which happens,the admins knew that so didnt warn you, then you lost a huey by flying into a danger zone,again no warning from our admins. Then you flew the Osprey far too close to MEC main,
The first osprey incident was an accident on my part, my fault.
As for the huey, and as I mentioned above, the designated area was not a 'danger zone.' Calling that area a danger zone would be similar to calling any area a map a 'danger zone', flag point or not. Nothing was reported in or near that destination apart from a BTR. It wasn't a BTR that shot me down, but a tank. Not much I can do against an unmarked tank with one shot capabilities.
As for the Osprey, I was flying at 900+ meters in the air to begin with. You're telling me if a jet were to fly at the same flight pattern at the same altitude that the pilot would be warned? I highly doubt it.

You lost the Osprey doing that maneuver which resulted in a kick.
Again, making random assertions. I could understand that the flight pattern could have been a lot different as they are many ways to approach it, but that is highly subjective. Flying at that altitude shouldn't have caused a problem for the other team, or with the admins. I do understand why the admin made that warning call, but please do not support the decision with a misconception. Doom was inevitable, as the anti air was between chemical weapons and main base, which wouldn't have made any difference had I approached directly from main.
The purpose of my replies is to clear some of the air, as I don't appreciate being accused of fallacies nor accused of being an incompetent pilot (supported by joining your flying server.. pretty weak). I apologize for using this medium for my specific experience. I'm going to leave it at that note, please message me if anything needs to be addressed further, I do not wish to complicate this thread anymore, that was not my intention.
