62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron, open to all pilots!

[Diesel_Thunder]

The 62nd Virtual Fighter Squadron welcomes all pilots looking for a squadron!

The 62nd is geared for those who would like be part of a squadron, but due to real life obligations, limited amounts of time to fly, busy work schedules, or family life, may not be able to join a squadron with a more specific focus or training requirements. We welcome DCS pilots of all skill levels on any aircraft, no matter how often you are able to fly. There's no commitment to join, nor any mandatory training in order to become a member of the 62nd. We offer a squadron for you to call home, meet and fly with fellow DCS pilots, and most of all, have fun!

Our squadron features a 24/7 private server on which to fly and is open to all wingmen and members of the 62nd VFS. We've also recently introduced squadron liveries for popular aircraft, available to all members.

We are mostly a U.S. based squadron, though we do have several members in Europe.

While we are not specifically a training squadron, several of our members have graciously stepped up and are willing to assist DCS pilots who are new to an aircraft or are learning tactics and advanced techniques. Twice a month we hold training sessions covering both combat and non-combat subjects.

As Commander of the 62nd VFS, I offer my invitation to join our squadron, with the invite link to our Discord server below. Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to flying with you in the virtual skies!

Do you have any scheduled mission events during the week with full briefing & mission data cards, & pilot sign-ups?

Could you please state anywhere among the infos here, what time zone you guys are operating? US? EU? If it doesn't match, no point to go to Discord, no pun intended.

Planned missions during the week, sometimes. We haven't ever used data cards. Lot more squadron activities tend to occur on the weekends.

The only thing we've used sign-ups for is when we run Liberation events and the monthly BFM contest.

Sure can! We're mostly US based, though we do have a few members that are in Europe.

[Razor18]

Thanks ! And how can the european members cope with the US time zone schedule? Just asking...

[Diesel_Thunder]

Those that are able, even with the time difference, are always welcome to join in squadron festivities!

Your group stands out to me because I'm one of those that has limited time due to work and family.  I'm just curious as to which timezone you're in.

Good morning, and apologies that I didn't see this earlier. Most of our wingmen are in the U.S, mostly eastern and central time zones. Though we do have some in mountain and Pacific time zones as well. We do hold squadron events and try to schedule them so that time zone isn't much of a factor.
