Hey guys. Can you send me your discord address? Sounds like my kind of group.

Good day.

I'm 33 years old. Long time ago I flew in the old IL-2, and I’ve been familiar with DCS since the time of the first LockOn.

But then I abandoned the flights

But recently returned to the virtual sky

 

I started in civilian planes (Xplane), then there was a new Il2. Then DCS...

 

I am looking for a flight company (online / cooperative).

I think hard squad is not for me. Because all squads require hard time schedule for missions and trainings. And I can't give that. Although I like milsim and hardcore.

 

 

 

Modules:

 

Persian Gulf Map

-ka-50 (well mastered)

-flaming cliffs 3 (excellent)

-F-18 (learned the basics, at the stage of accumulating experience)

-F-14 (I can replace Jester :) but only start learning this plane)

 

Languages:

-Russian (fluent)

 

 

-English (good conversational level, but I don’t know military (nato) terminology).

- Italian (beginner)

 

 

By time:

Basically, I fly after 22-00 (UTC time). But I don't have a schedule for days (week).

Hey there. We’d love to have you. Don’t worry, even the English speaking guys don’t know military terminology any better than you but we all try and have fun with it. The timezone will be hit and miss. We have a good number of Europeans in the group but they don’t seem to be as active as the guys in the US time zones, but we do have a few that play US timezone mornings which might work out for you. Give it a shot. There’s no commitments at all. PM me and I’ll get you going. Cheers!

Would love to join the server if possible on Discord.

 

PM inbound. :smilewink:

BuDs (BUsy DadS) is looking for some more wingmen. As our name suggests, we are a group of guys who don’t have time, and cannot make any commitments, to any other type of formal squad due to the nature of life, but need a place to come hang out when life (A.K.A. wife) allows. BuDs is that place where you can just hop in and out whenever you want, even if it’s just to say hello, or also if you want to put up a 3 hour mission. Anything goes! We’re mostly casual, but also willing to be formal. Come on by during your squad's off-nights. We have several smaller squads that drop by often. Think of it like stopping in at your favorite neighborhood bar to shoot some pool or throw some darts with some familiar faces you see outside around town. You can even bring some beer along if you’d like :)

 

You don’t even have to commit to this group. Participation in other groups is encouraged too. Networking is good, especially when we all have a common interest.

 

We only started mid-March this year and are still getting to know each other, so don’t feel intimated to hop in and join the fun!

 

We are on Discord, and our chat room is just as active than our online play. We joke around, talk about aviation, discuss our busy lives, share pictures, and even talk about our biggest hurdle in DCS gameplay... the BuMs!

 

There are currently more than 120 of us (as of 9/26/2019), and we’re looking to grow a little more so that we get the benefit of MP availability when desired while also keeping the group small and personable so that we all know each other and can learn from each other. There are still pockets in the day of inactivity, so we'll keep growing for now, however most of the time there are people around to play with.

 

We are global and a borderless community and all share a common interest in aviation. See our map here.

 

Also, you don’t have to be busy, or a dad, to join. As long as you are in the mentality of casual game play, understand that life gets in the way when you’re in the middle of a bombing run, and feeling social, BuDs is for you.

 

We all enjoy talking about airplanes and simulators throughout the day in the chat room.

 

A typical MP session goes something like this...

Hop into BuDs on Discord and see who’s online, establish communication, hop into whatever shenanigans are going on, and leave when your wife tells you to, if you must :)

If no one is on, start up a server, hop into the voice channel and send a message to the group to entice someone to join you.

 

 

Here are some videos from BuDs sessions:

 

 

If this sounds like the MP experience you’re looking for, shoot me a PM and introduce yourself and I’ll get you into the group from there. The server is not public. Please let me know which city you’re in and I’ll introduce you to the BuDs.

 

 

Blue skies!

 

 

 

 

Fun fact: Our logo below was a screenshot taken from an actual BuDs formation flight, later edited to remove the background. Don't worry, we fly helos too!

@GTFreeFlyer - Just sent you a PM, kindly let me know if you have slots still available!

 

Cheers,

 

Nato!
