77th “BLACK CATS” TRAINING SQUADRON “TAKE TO THE SKIES OF WORLD WAR II” **77th “Black Cats” Training Squadron Naval Air Station Alameda, California World War II Military Simulation Flight Program** **WHO WE ARE** The 77th “Black Cats” Training Squadron is a historically-inspired, professional-grade virtual flight training unit. Based out of NAS Alameda, we specialize in World War II aviation simulation using DCS. Our mission is to rigorously train pilots—regardless of prior experience—in the procedures, skills, and tactics employed by real WWII aviators across both the Pacific and European theaters. **WHAT WE DO** Our structured block training program covers the full spectrum of WWII military flight operations, including: • Basic flight fundamentals and handling • Takeoff, landing, and formation flying • Full-spectrum ATC communications • Instrument flight, navigation, and dead reckoning • Air-to-air combat and dogfighting techniques • Real-world WWII combat tactics tailored to each airframe Every student is trained in accordance with historically accurate doctrine and procedures, ensuring tactical proficiency and operational realism. **TRAINING ELIGIBILITY** To apply, candidates must meet the following criteria: • Minimum age: 18 years • VR headset or head-tracking system • HOTAS setup • WWII aircraft modules for DCS • Pacific Theater modules if training on the F4U Corsair **PROGRAM DIFFICULTY** The 77th Black Cats uphold high standards rooted in historical realism. Training is intense, structured, and demands commitment. • Dropout Rate: ~65% • Why? You’ll be challenged to master the unique strengths—and quirks—of your selected WWII aircraft in realistic combat environments. **AFTER GRADUATION** Upon successful completion of the program, graduates will be assigned to one of our military simulation combat squadrons (Pacific or European) https://discord.gg/9QqUHh3mqG
