If anyone knows of any that are recruiting, or would be interested in forming one, let me know. My e-mail is mike@plas-tal.com. Appreciate any info.  :p

there are very few squads that fly only one plane type.  412th Braunco Mustangs (p-51s) and the 56th FG Zemke's Wolfpack (p-47s mostly) are the only ones I know of the top of my head that fly one plane type more than anything else.
 I don't think you'll find an Avenger only squad.  Best you'll get is a squad that likes to fly the TBMs occasionally on CV runs.

Let me know if you find or form one.  I would be more than willing to escort your "Turkeys" in my Hellcat.
