New: Crew Chief Profiles (Edit My Profile link fixed)

Stefaan · by **Stefaan** » 22 Dec 2006, 14:54

We just launched a new service, called <a href="crewchiefs.html">Crew Chief Profiles</a> for all you Crew Chiefs (and former Crew Chiefs). where you can create your own profile.

A crew chief profile is an illustrated overview of your career. You can add:

The jets you worked on (we will automatically add a photograph and current status)
The units you were assigned to (we will automatically add the patch)
Your comments about these jets and units (we will automatically display them in our aircraft database as well)
Past deployments you participated in

Your crew chief profile also provides a contact address on F-16.net, so your long-lost buddies can get in touch with you. We don't display your e-mail address, we will simply notify you when a message has arrived on F-16.net for you. This way, there's no danger of spam or unsollicited E-mails in your inbox!

Head over to the <a href="crewchiefs.html">Crew Chief Profiles</a> section now and be one of the first to add your profile!

Of course, all feedback and suggestions are most welcome!

Enjoy,

The F-16.net Team

I'll put it down as a "feature request" :-)

F-16.net has photos of over 60% of all F-16s and still trying to expand those numbers. So if you crewed an aircraft and we don't have a photo of it, please help us fill these gaps.

Also keep in mind that at this point we can only use ONE photo of the F-16 you crewed for each crew chief profile point of history. So the aircraft you crewed is the same as the one in the photo but may not carry the same unit markings.

When I post mine can I also include the 3 years of F-15 background or should I leave it out?

Purplehaze,

at the moment you can add non-F-16 assignments in the "bio" field and/or in the "other assignments" field at the bottom.

I am currently looking into expanding the CC module to better support non-F-16 assignments, but it could take a few weeks before I complete the extra functionality.

Thanks everyone for creating a profile, we really enjoy seeing the histories and reading the stories!

A few people notified me that the "Edit My Profile" link didn't appear. This problem occured for a few members, and has now been fixed.

Sorry for the inconvenience!
