r_vandenbroek Posted February 25, 2023 Posted February 25, 2023 (edited) Carrier Air Wing 66 Currently enlisting: F/A-18C and F-14B pilots and RIOs, ATC controllers and mission makers. About us: Carrier Air Wing 66 is a DCS World PVE multiplayer group, centered on US Navy fighters and operations. We are a small, but tight-knit community that emphasizes immersion, realism and teamwork over individual performance. We are primarily a PVE (Player vs. Environment) group that uses training, qualification and detailed missions to immerse ourselves into the atmosphere of modern jet combat and the mindset of a US Naval aviator. If you enjoy fast-paced action and racking up kills in PVP, this might NOT be the group for you. We are a mature and consistent group that focuses on learning, progression and having an inclusive and enthusiastic community. We can be considered a ‘hard-core’ unit, in that we emphasize training, qualification and dedicated pilots that fly together over an extended period using realistic tactics, techniques and procedures. We currently operate two (fictional) US Navy squadrons; VF-119 "Tridents", flying the F-14B Tomcat and VFA-166 "Maulers", flying the F/A-18C Hornet. Schedule: We strive to fly twice a week, on thursday and sunday, starting at 1930CE(S)T. We operate a yearly schedule, consisting of training in the NTTR, then carrier (re)qualifications and finally a cruise (deployment on a carrier), where we play an extensive campaign consisting of cyclic operations and major strikes. Recruitment: At the moment we are looking for 2 Tomcat pilots (and/or RIO's). Our hornet squadron is also ready for new recruits! BEFORE YOU CONSIDER APPLYING- MAKE SURE THAT YOU THIS DESCRIPTION IS FITTING FOR YOU: 1. You are a mature, casual dude, that enjoy 'serious fun' and learning together with like-minded pilots. 2. You own and actively fly the Heatblur F-14 Tomcat or ED's F/A-18 Hornet and can hold your own in all aspects of a mission (Navigation, communication, a2a refueling, BVR, WVR, A2G, Case I recovery). 3. You have been active with DCS for a good while and know that this is a lasting passion and hobby for you. 4. You can enjoy 'slow paced' gameplay, where the focus is learning together, rather than racking up kills in a PVP server. 5. You are European based (Due to ping and timezones) and speak English comfortably. 6. You own the NTTR, PG and Syria maps. 7. You have, or are willing to get Simple Radio (SRS) for inflight communications. Lastly- REAL LIFE always comes first. If you can't join us for a mission, don't sweat it. Got a few busy weeks ahead? No problem. Just let us know. However, we expect that you make an effort to be an active and contributing member, and that you realistically aim to join 3-4+ missions a month in general. If you join but end up not participating over the course of weeks you will be discharged. If ALL of these points apply to you- feel free to join our Discord channel, read the welcome document and tell me a bit about yourself and your background, including DCS. Discord Channel If you enjoy flying the Tomcat and Hornet together with like-minded people- you won't regret it!
