  1. Who we are: Let’s start with our motto: Brave Men and their Proud Simulators We’re a virtual US Navy squadron, vVF-161, and we fly the F/A-18C Hornet and F-14B Tomcat. We used to say we’re MilSim-Lite, but we might be a little more hardcore than we realized. We follow NATOPS procedures as closely as possible, and we work together as a squadron to improve our skills in the jets, especially communication, coordination, and battlefield performance. We’re serious about training, professionalism, and camaraderie, but we don’t demand the sacrifices and full-time commitment of a real-life military pilot. In other words, we want the squadron to be fun and rewarding. So we don’t use ranks or give orders. We don’t say sir or ma’am, either. But we do have officers and a hierarchy. Why? Because even a virtual squadron needs leadership and organization. At the end of the day, our goal is for the Fightin’ Stingrays to be a place where we can hang out, have a good time, and foster real-world friendships. Still interested? Outstanding! Keep reading for more info and links below. We’re looking for: Pilots and RIOs of all skill levels and experience. Are you… · New to DCS and still trying to learn your first module? Then you’re in luck! We have a training cadre and missions designed to introduce you gradually to the Hornet or Tomcat. · An experienced virtual pilot who wants to try multiplayer in a more organized setting? We train and fly as a squadron at least once a week, on Thursday evenings (US Eastern). · An OG from the LOMAC days who’s tried everything? Maybe you’re tired of flying lone-wolf. Maybe you’ve flown with another group and didn’t like it for whatever reason. If that’s the case, we might be the right squadron for you. We’re serious, but we also understand the need for a healthy balance of life, work, and fun. We’re strict about: · Mutual respect, both within the squadron and for the community as a whole. · Real-world operational doctrine (NATOPS), given the limits of DCS and the ME. · Training and improving our skills. · Squadron SOP. We’re relaxed about: · Off-duty discipline; we aren’t an actual military organization, after all. (Although we’re pretty serious when we’re flying and fangs-out.) · Reports and paperwork; we’re fighter pilots, not pencil pushers. · Strict attendance; we expect you to participate in briefings and flight nights, but we understand that life and family come first. · Having fun; our squadron Discord is full of memes, talk about planes (duh), and the usual chitchat about life in general. So we’re serious where it counts—in the cockpit—and light-hearted everywhere else. More about us: We a smallish squad at the moment, about 20 members, but we’ve grown through yearly recruiting drives. This is our third one, so we have a solid track record and long-term plans for sustainable growth. We currently have pilots with years of aviation experience, both in DCS and real life, along with newer members who only have a few hundred hours of virtual flight time. We’re a mix of military veterans and private sector, and we range in age from mid-twenties to cough, cough fifty-something. So we’re a diverse group from all walks of life, but we’re united by our passion for aviation. What we do: We fly as a squadron two nights a week: Mission Planning & Free Flight on Tuesday evenings (2045EDT, 0045Z) and Operations/Training on Thursday evenings. Flight nights include briefings, flight assignments, comms, kneeboard pages, and more. We have a squadron Discord and a private, dedicated DCS server. Impromptu flight nights happen several times a week, whenever two of us are online and in the mood, which is pretty often. Our training: Whether you’re new or experienced, we’ll take you through an organized training program that’s designed to teach you advanced systems, tactics, and squadron SOP. Over the course of twelve weeks, you’ll gain the confidence and skills required to be a virtual naval aviator in the Hornet or Tomcat. If you’re new-new and don’t even know how to start the jet, we have instructor pilots and a library of resources that will help you get up to speed on the basics before training kicks off. Okay, now let’s talk about nuts and bolts. Module requirements: · Aircraft: F/A-18C Hornet or F-14 Tomcat · Maps: Syria and NTTR · Asset Packs: Supercarrier · Additional Software: OvGME and DCS Simple Radio Standalone (SRS) Personal requirements: · Are you a mature adult? You need a thick skin and the ability to laugh at yourself, especially when you screw up (which we all do). We keep things polite, but we can be utterly merciless to each other, so this is essential. · Can you take constructive criticism when it’s warranted? Can you give constructive criticism to others and be tactful about it? We’re serious about this—we debrief every flight and constantly work to improve our skills. · Are you willing to learn and improve as a pilot? Can you contribute to the squadron as a whole? The other stuff: Between us, we own pretty much every module in DCS. We fly jets, helos, and warbirds, as well as IL-2, MSFS 2020, and other sims (racing, space). We even have one guy who “flies” a steam locomotive. Yes, you read that right, the guy really loves trains. And he’s one of us, so we are… The Fightin’ Stingrays: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles! Long story short, we love sims, so you’ll always find another squad member who’s ready to fly, drive, or… uh… train with you. ( See what I did there?) What’s next: If you’ve made it this far and feel like you might be a good fit, visit the vVF-161 Fightin’ Stingrays website. You can learn a little more about us and watch videos of recent flights to see how we operate. And if you’re new to DCS, you can even get a sneak peek at our training program. Finally, you’ll find the Discord handles for the squadron CO and XO at the bottom of each page on the website. Send us a DM and we’ll reply with an invite to join the Discord server. Until then, thanks for reading, and we hope to see you soon. Fair winds and following seas, - Mongo, Otto(Wrench), and the Stingrays Admin Staff Brave Men and their Proud Simulators A quick note on our plans for the Tomcat: We’re recruiting both pilots and RIOs, and our goal is to have all-human crews when we fly. This adds an additional layer of complexity to both training and combat operations, but we’re dedicated and creative, so we usually find a way to make things work. ----- TL;DR vVF-161 Fightin’ Stingrays are recruiting Hornet and Tomcat pilots & RIOs of all skill levels for flight nights on Thursday evenings (US Eastern).
  2. DCS has a big community and choosing a place to settle down can be hard. There are a lot of groups out there and all of them have a different culture and fly differently. As you are reading this ask yourself what you want out of a DCS group. VFA-211 is a DCS Strike Fighter Squadron that is dedicated to getting as close as possible to real world Naval aviation operations. VFA-211 is dedicated to training its members to be the best of the best. We pride ourselves on flying like real Naval Aviators. We also love Naval Aviation and Naval operations. VFA-211 offers a unique experience in that we capture the culture around Naval Squadrons. We are small right now but we have the potential of growing into something pretty great. We need people devoted to building VFA-211 up into a group of like minded people that act like a family building each other up. Our leadership loves Naval Aviation and loves Sharing that love of Naval Aviation with its members. We are devoted to making an authentic and realistic experience. We are often classified as a military simulation (mil sim), but what does that exactly mean? Well our definition of it is that we strive to get as close as we can to real-world operations within the limits of DCS. Our training and operational programs closely resemble that of a real VFA. Training phases: Fleet Readiness Training Program (FRTP), Strike Fighter Advanced Readiness Program (SFARP) and Tailored Ship’s Training Availability (TSTA). Lot’s of hours are spent by squadron members making detailed briefs and training materials. VFA-211’s members have a lot of experience in a wide range of tactics and procedures. Our members are devoted to helping one another to accomplish the goal of creating a realistic experience within DCS. Mil sim does not mean you have to greet people and say sir. But we do have a chain of command and we have ranks to identify people that have given their time to alleviate the administrative burden of maintaining a group like this and members that help in strengthening our culture. VFA-211’s brand is “Work hard play hard”. We feel that if you put in the work here that’s what you’re going to get a lot out of it. Also our motto from CVW-1 (our Carrier Air Wing) is “Primus et principes” it means primus and principles in English, meaning if you stick to it and our principles you will love it. Our goal is to have you look back and see how much you have evolved as a virtual aviator. So is VFA-211 a good fit for you, think back to the question I asked you at the very beginning “what you want out of a DCS group” does this fit with what you want in a DCS Group? Here are more questions that you can ask yourself. Do I have a passion for flying and a passion for naval aviation? Do I enjoy Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and reading and biting by them? At VFA-211 Flight Training Instructional (FTI) and SOPs are the core of our flight operations. Do I enjoy flying the F/A-18C start up to shut down? Am I experienced enough in the F/A-18C? Do I enjoy working as a team and learning in a professional and realistic manner? Can I receive criticism in debriefs whether I fail or succeed in a given mission? Can I become part of a group that flies in the Central standard time zone on Saturday at 1900? If you said yes to all of them, VFA-211 may be a good option for you. We currently need about 10 - 20 active pilots. We currently only operate the F/A-18C and plan to stay that way since we are trying to have a circa 2022 Strike Fighter Squadron. Our training consists of 1 mission in FTRP Check flight, which consists of Air to Air Refueling (AAR), Low Altitude Tactics (LAT), Air to surface (AS), Air to Air (AA) in VFA-106 then you will go to VFA-211. In VFA-211 you will be put through SFARP which teaches you Close Air Support (CAS), Armed Reconnaissance (AR) and much more. If you have made it to the end of this, congratulations! If you are interested in the Strike Fighter Squadron and want to learn more about it join our discord at https://discord.gg/yT9RTndGe6. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask us in the recruiting section of our discord. We look forward to having you on our team. FLY NAVY!!
  3. If you're interested in participating in a continuing series of scripted carrier squadron missions in DCS World, but not interested in joining one of the "biggest and best" squadrons, you should visit: http://www.vfa-41.com - US time zones. - Weekly missions on Sunday nights. Unscheduled missions... are unscheduled. - 9-phased mandatory basic training and qualification program. - F/A-18C Hornet required for qualification, all carrier aircraft supported. - VFA-41 Training Range server up 24/7 (all welcome). The VFA-41 squadron roster is limited to 12 pilots. The squadron will never get bigger than that. Black Aces roster slots are valuable and reserved for carrier pilots who will get up and fly, not for those who might fly if they can find the time. Each Black Ace is a critical member of the team, and missions require each to be ready to fly and fight in order to meet mission objectives. Expert pilots need not apply. VFA-41 does not seek expert pilots. The only requirement is that you have to want to fly, and be prepared to fly at least once a week. If you can't (or don't want to) commit to getting into your plane once a week, Black Aces roster slots are reserved for active pilots. If you see an open slot on the squadron roster, we're recruiting. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you're looking for a squadron that will add you to their roster immediately when you submit an application, you should apply to one of the huge squadrons. VFA-41 does not operate like that. You will not be just another faceless name automatically added to an infinite roster with dozens of other members. Our goal is not to have the greatest number of members, but rather the have the right number of dedicated pilots to support ongoing missions. Applicants will be invited to interview with the CO and XO. VFA-41 does not offer trial memberships. If naval aviation is in your blood, and you're seeking a permanent home with other committed naval aviators, that empty slot on the Black Aces pilot roster may be waiting for you.
