Backsword Posted September 25, 2008 Posted September 25, 2008 Hello to you all I registered with the site this morning but I have been watching the forums for years. How I held off so long who knows. I have been flying with a FS9 based VA for 5 years and have only devoted a fraction of my time to LOMAC in the past. Now that there is a rotary simulator in sight though, particularly of this calibre that is something I will be looking to change. Now that BS appears to be on the verge of release I am preparing myself like many I'm sure for some long nights curled up with the 550 page manual and a steady flow of caffeine. I do not cringe at the thought of this rather I try to relish the experience and look forward to the moment where it all clicks. However, once I feel comfortable with the sim I will be looking to fly online with a Mil VA. So to my question(s). Where should I be looking for a serious organisation that might offer me a place in a rotary squadron? Are there already groups formed in anticipation of the release? If so can I apply now? Rather than going through all of the training offline would it be possible to get online from day one and train with serious individuals without the fear of being engaged every 5 mins? Thankyou in advance for any comments or pointers. Troy

Backsword Posted September 26, 2008 Author Posted September 26, 2008 Hi Thank you gents. I should have mentioned that I'm in England but I've never had any problems flying US time before. Will have a good think about it whilst we all wait for release. many thanks
nemises Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 ^^ Hi Backsword, Feel free to check out http://www.104thphoenix.com as well, Currently recruiting in Europe timezone I believe :) Primarily a LOMAC squad, but have several folks involved in the BS Beta, and will definately be flying it as a squad when she finally lands.
stswrebel Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 I've learned about lock on a little while ago and I have been haveing a lot of fun with it. I am eagerly awaiting the release of Black Shark and have been updating my computer in anticipation. I have always wanted to do some online flying but never have. I would be real interested in in joining a group that is willing to help out someone totaly new to the online flying community. The above has been based loosely upon my own opinions. :pilotfly:

Backsword Posted October 1, 2008 Author Posted October 1, 2008 Thanks again for your replies and links. I am really looking forward to flying online. With no confirmed release I am trying to put BS to one side of my mind. Since I dont know how far the finishing line is I dont want to run out of steam. I will see what happens over the next few weeks and lord willing I can start ground school with some of you soon. Thanks

I just filled out the registration form for the squadron. I hope you also take applicants from your friendly neighbour Austria? :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Swisstiger Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 Hi Rob I see your Registration, and is ok. I have your Contact in Skype ! Swisstiger
RobGordon Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 Great! The only thing that's still missing is the game itself. I've orderd a copy about 2 weeks ago and the shop already deducted the payment from my CC so it should arrive some time next week I hope. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
