Well I find myself looking for a squadron. I was flying with a group on probation until recently but after messaging the leader several days ago to find out what was going on, and not hearing anything back I have decided to move on and try to find a home. I would honestly prefer a 109 or German Iron squadron, but I can also fly 38's F6F's and corsairs (can fly pretty much any plane, but those are my preferences). One thing though is that for the next year I will be back and forth between South Carolina and Scotland, mostly in Scotland. After that I will be back in South Carolina. It's not a problem for me, I will still be flying in both places but figured I should mention that.

If you want a german iron squad try the JG 54 or JG 11 . Both very good squads and fun guys !! If you would like something different , give us a try with the 353rd FG ! We also fly FSO and have a ball .. Good luck in which ever you choose !!
-
GAReaper,
We're not much of an MA squad, but FSO and scenario we take as the heart of this game. If you want Hog time, we practice with them every monday night, and 1 on 1 time is available (we got a trainer around here somewhere :lol). When blue planes aren't available in scenario or FSO, we normally have an affinity for 109's. If interested, read through our recruiting post, and PM me if interested.
:salute

Well I would love to give FSO a try... only problem is when I am in Scotland it seems like all the FSOs are around 10 pm est which is around 4 am there :P.

Hello Bones, if you are still looking JG52 is currently recruiting pilots.
If you are looking for a german squadron, we are a nice fit for you.
All we really ask is that you rotate countries with us every two tours, we are currently Rook. We will spend November and December as Bishop.
We operate on Squad Vox or Vox 152. More commonly we are found on Teamspeak 3.
If you are willing to learn, then we would love to have you with JG52. Just PM : myself(Ratio in-game), Cheech (Saito - BBS ID), or alpini13 for more information.

You are welcome to wing up with the 113th Lucky Strikes , a long time Knight squad 14 years and see if you enjoy our brand of game play. We start operations around 7:pm Saturday evenings EST and use vox 113. Check out our wiki page , watch the films and come check us out see if we meet your needs.

You should consider the Blue Knights. Squad full of hot sticks and they don't care what you fly :rock
-
Wow thanks for all the responses guys! Got a lot to think about apparently lol. And Ammo I actually thought about trying to join 56th for awhile, only problem was that I am absolutely terrible in a jug lol. Now I suppose I will go assume the thinking man pose and ponder what squad will be best for me awhile :P.

Your initial post kind of took the 56th out of the running :D You will have to mothball the leathers if you want to join the 56th :lol
-
Lol I would just get laughed at in the 56th. The Jug just boggles me lol. I just can't figure out how to fly that dang plane. Any time I hop in it this smiley pretty much sums it up :ahand get it handed right to me XD.
-
If you can fly the 109s, you have promise - you can learn anything. Me personally, I can't get past the smell of sauerkraut when I up a 109.
-
LOL. Once you get past the smell the 109f is an amazing bird. In the right hands its extremely maneuverable and can take on spits no problem. I still can't figure out how to even attempt to fly the jug lol. I think maybe I try to turn fight in them too much :P
-
Haha - yea - different beasts altogether. You can't repeatedly yank on the controls in a P-47 - that'll get you killed quick. The P-47 has respectable speed, amazing firepower, and is a very stable AC. You gotta use it strengths against your enemy's weaknesses.
-
So its more of a dive in shoot then extend plane I take it?
-
:huh :huh :huh :huh What are you wearing? :x :x :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :O :O :neener: :neener: :neener:
-
Yessir (unless you are Latrobe or equivalent).
It has tricks up its sleeve that come with experience. I can get the nose of the AC around pretty quick when I need to, but those maneuvers are saved for defense or to stay one move ahead ahead of my opponent. It's high speed turning ability is great, but bleeds E quickly with less acceleration than the typical MA ride. You have to keep your speed. It also helps to have decent gunnery to take advantage of your first pass.
Oh yea, it has room for a small refrigerator in the cockpit.
-
Woooo room for beer! lol. I guess I will give the AC a try in the MA and get back to you :P. And Daddkev..... boxer briefs.... is that the correct answer?? lol

We are currently are flying with the knights right now but are known to switch countries when enough members start whining :aok Below is our charter.
1. You have to play AH because you think it's fun. Sometimes I wonder if some paying customers are really having fun:)
2. You gotta like the P-47. Not just to pork a base on a suicide mission.
3. You can fly whatever you want in the MA, but when we happen to get together, we will fly a Jug.
4. Squad night is Wednesdays, but loosely enforced. We do fly in FSO.
5. You gotta have thick skin, and cursing on VOX is encouraged.
6. Events: I love them - especially when a jug is in the plan. I hope members would try to attend - however, I understand life and time zones get in the way.
7. Skill level doesn't matter. See rule number 1. However I bet you will get better flying with the 56th.
8. Be respectful and polite to other players when possible and keep trash talk to a minimum - unless the bastages deserve it. Still, keep it moderated (use your noggin).
9. When appropriate, provide help to players (new and old) on country channel.
Tune to 156 and fly with us a few days. If you get along with us and find the jug is for you, we'll send you an invitation. See you in the MA! :salute

I saw what you did.
(Played 'hard to get' and he couldn't resist.) :D
