Keep in mind that your membership in a squad ops squad has no impact on your membership in an MA or CT squad. Each of these squad databases are separate.
If you decide to join as a new squad, the minimum commitment for a squad is 4-6 pilots which means, with the allowances, you can fly with as few as 2 or as many as 8 and be within your attendance requirement.
As you've found out, it's easy to find a squad to fly with. Good decision to post here!
We'll see you inside!
