Scoops81 Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 Hey folks, Been playing around with DCS for a couple of months now and am interested in joining a squadron, I am in EST (-5 GMT) in case anyone is wondering. As far as experience I would say I am relatively green, I've flown plenty of sims in the past, none as complex as this. Thanks.

Adixylian Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 You can join my squadron, we are recruiting at the moment. 52knight.org <-- We have Discord, teamspeak, sometimes our own mp servers... Trainings are 2 or more times a week (our members are every day online so you can join them). We got 2 members who are playing DCS since it came out for the 1st time and that is a rare thing. They even played other sims (BMS Falcon for ex) before DCS so you are guaranteed to get the skills and knowledge from them ;) But, on the other side, we are very strict about the activity (or better to say it, inactivity) so you have to be online at least once per week.

Scoops81 Posted May 14, 2018 Author Posted May 14, 2018 Adixylian, thanks for the quick response. I am about to sign up, but I have a couple of questions: 1. What aircraft do you guys fly normally? I purchased the F/A-18 module and will try to focus learning that primarily (when it comes out), but I also have FC3 and fly the F-15. I was going to purchase the Hawk or F-5. 2. What days normally do you guys fly? Some of the other squadrons I've seen do 4 days minimum, this may be a problem for me committing that much time as real life gets in the way.

KSilva Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Are you guys doing ground school while you wait for the F-14 and F/A-18 to come out? Yes we will be doing Ground Courses for both the F/A-18 and F-14 while we are waiting. But importantly as we are waiting, we are covering important material, such as the pattern work and radio comms with training aircraft such as the F-5 (While we are waiting for both F/A-18 and F-14)

KSilva Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Cool, sounds like I should buy the F-5 then. :) Well I mean no need to buy the F-5 if you don't have it :P the F/A-18 is right around the corner
Scoops81 Posted May 16, 2018 Author Posted May 16, 2018 Well I mean no need to buy the F-5 if you don't have it :P the F/A-18 is right around the corner This is true.:)
mwd2 Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 What is 'pattern work'? Can you give a sample? Playing: DCS World Intel i7-13700KF, 64GB DDR5 @5600MHz, RTX 4080 ZOTAC Trinity, WIN 11 64Bit Prof. Squadron "Serious Uglies" / Discord-Server: https://discord.gg/2WccwBh Ghost0815
KSilva Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) What is 'pattern work'? Can you give a sample? Pattern work, as in practicing the Pattern for the Airfield. We do patterns how the U.S Navy does them, and a lot of our new guys aren't familiarized on the Navy styled pattern. So that's what I mean by "Pattern Work" Edited May 16, 2018 by KSilva
