OnionSpider13 Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 CVW-8 is now recruiting pilots for VFA-201! Selectees will have the opportunity to train on the F/A-18C and learn carrier operations. Pilots within VFA-201 will all transition to the F-14B (VF-31 and VF-213) once the module is released. Check us out at https://www.cvw-8.org/!
CheckGear Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 You guys transition aircraft also??? You guys take this stuff serial! :P
RaceFuel85 Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 You guys transition aircraft also??? You guys take this stuff serial! :P Well the idea is that there are some guys who want to fly the Hornet but are planning on immediately jumping into the Tomcat the moment it releases. We didn't want to have our two other Hornet squadrons, 87 and 15, left in the lurch with a sudden brain drain when that happens. We created 201 so that the guys who are likely to drop the Hornet and not pick it back up have a place to do their thing.
probad Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 oh yeah maybe everyone should start posting their recruitment threads in their respective module forums :noexpression:

BritTorrent Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Interesting, I've been looking for a good virtual Navy squadron. Are you guys still recruiting for Hornet drivers? Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk Yes sir! VFA-87 is getting pretty close to full up, however VFA-15 in our unit still has multiple slots open. Primarily VFA-201 is for the folks who are going Tomcat as soon as it comes out.
