Title: Canadian pilots/squadron ?
Post by: Phil on October 14, 2006, 01:09:05 PM

Gentlemen

I'm a rookie and WOW what a game this is....
I've been investigating/reading many threads and they are very informative and some intimidating since I'm not a computer wiz...
Seeing all this documentations will obviously help me out. Some of you's are very knowledgable in every aspect of this game....
Use to be an above average pilot years back with AIRWARRIOR III online.
I had my own RCAF squadron (RCAF401 / Spits) and flew escorts with Buff missions. God I miss this a lot. The reasons I quit was because of the hardware gettin' out of date and not being able to play the game(lag/rubber bullets/no cable internet connection etc...) Well now tech as been knockin' at my door and I'm ready to purchase top notch hardware and software and CH products using TRACK IR.
I'm PISSIN' all over ! That TRACK IR is fregin' AWESOME !  HOLY SHOOT !
Can anyone direct me to some Canadian pilots / squadrons. Would be nice to find out if anyone's is from my area ? Ottawa, Canada
Thanks

Heya's Phil ,
    Canadian here. There are quite a few of us in the game so far. Look up No. 417 Sqn (Busher is the CO I think), a bunch of Canadians in that squadron and the CO is one of us. Or you could look me up ingame - I fly with Ghosts, several of us in that squadron too :).



Cheers,
asw

It is 418 Squadron RCAF 'Hornets'

And yes Busher is the CO.  Contains some of the finest people you could meet in this game.

Thanks so much gents !

Goin' thru ground training at this time...
Guess will be flyin' those Tigermoths here in Rocklif Park Ottawa Ontario

Then the interesting part will be flyin' those yellow RCAF Kites called AT26 Texan

Hopefully will be assigned overseas to Spitfire squad in near future.
In the meantime fly safe, find 'em before they find you.

Salute
Phil
