Angel Flight
The Angel Strike Command, (PROSE: Catfight) commonly referred to as the Angels, was the air force division of the security organisation Spectrum. Led by Destiny Angel, it was entirely made up of female pilots. (COMIC: Traitor Black Gives In! et al.)
History
In September 2067, while Spectrum was still a secret organisation, Destiny took off from Cloudbase in Nice for Glenn Field in Miami to meet Captain Black upon his return from the Zero X mission to Mars he commanded. However, TV 21 reporters Pete Tracker and Lens Sharpe spotted her departure and followed in their own craft. After at least a day, Destiny told Colonel White of their persistence, resulting in him advising her to contact the World Air Force in the Bahamas to help stop them. Although she got away while Tracker and Sharpe were temporarily grounded, they still managed to track her course to Glenn Field and follow once their questioning had finished. (COMIC: SPECTRUM)
In an account dated to August 2088, Kylie Walker reported that Captain Scarlet was missing and presumed dead following a "spectacular" mid-air crash. Eyewitnesses saw Scarlet's jet make a deliberate turn into an Angel aircraft seconds before the crash, seemingly leaving no chance of survivors. (PROSE: Captain Scarlet in Death Crash!) However, he was later confirmed to be alive. (PROSE: Zero X: Four Crew Missing) In March 2089, Harry Dobermann reported on the rumours sweeping Australia that Captain Black and the Mysterons had surrendered. This was fuelled by a local news service picking up a signal from Cloudbase to Black in which Spectrum agreed to send Angel aircraft to a location chosen by him. (PROSE: Captain Black Surrenders)
According to the given date of their front page, in September 2089, Action 21 printed their account of how the Angel Strike Command was formed. (PROSE: Catfight!)
In 2068, when World President T.J. Younger disbanded Spectrum following the apparent conclusion of the Mysteron War, the five Angels and their craft joined the World Army-Air Force. Spectrum was later reformed after it became clear the Mysterons' defeat was actually a clever ruse. (COMIC: Traitor Black Gives In!)
