Hello, fellow virtual aviators!
Just downloaded DCS last week, gave it a test run on the free planes, decided I liked what I saw so I picked up the F/A-18 module on a special offer.
I played flight sims since I was a kid. To age myself, I'll say that my childhood favorites were Falcon 3.0 (Spectrum Holobyte) and Chuck Yeager's Air Combat (EA). I stopped playing during my mid-adult years but recently picked back up with Elite: Dangerous and FS2020. Now that HOTAS prices have fallen back down to Earth, I've decided to give DCS a go - Grim Reaper's vids on YT really sold it on me. I'm currently running a VKB Gladiator NXT and Thrustmaster TWCS combo, with some serious paralysis analysis occurring with regards to purchasing a VR headset.
Looking forward to seeing you in the skies, whether you're my wingman or a bandit!
