No Russian Squads
« on: December 12, 2012, 11:11:22 AM »
I've been looking for a squad flying Russian planes, can't find one.  Have been flying the La-5Fn mainly and would like to find a squad that flies this plane.

The only Russian-oriented squadron that I know of is the 9th GIAP: http://www.9giap.com/

I see some of their members on the FSO roster on Fridays, but I'm not sure if they're recruiting or even if they fly the La-5FN often.

Thanx for the info.  BTW, used to be a member of VF-17 under the callsign najdorf.  Flew with Arlo and Talliven back then.

That's cool! I'm one of the newer members of VF-17. It's nice to run into a veteran  :aok :salute
