JOIN THE 49th FIGHTER GROUP TODAY!
We are looking for a few dedicated sim pilots that really like to fly, have an interest in WW2 Aviation and are interested in flying sorties that are as "Realistic" & "Historical" as possible. We are also looking for people who just want to fly and have a good time whether you are an "Ace" or a "Newbie". So if you like realistic missions or just enjoy a night of furballing we're the squad for you. We go head to head against some of the best Axis pilots in the game while flying in the AVA, so if you want real challenge visit our website and join us.
OPERATIONS:
Our principal mounts will be the aircraft used by the Historical 49th FG in WW2 - The P-38G/J/L LIGHTNING as our main aircraft and the P-40E WARHAWK & P-47D-11 THUNDERBOLT when the P-38 isn't available. We operate with an emphasis on both Intercept and Ground Attack missions. We will also operate using original WW2 USAAF tactics, formations & radio procedures so that you will get as close to that "feeling" of actually flying the missions as you can get - short of actually being shot at.
During times when our main squad a/c aren't available such as the early war ETO or MTO scenarios we will fly the appropriate Allied aircraft available.

SQUAD TIMES:
The 49th FG flies at the following times:
SQUAD NIGHTS:
Sunday at 8:00 EST, Tuesday & Thursday at 9:00pm EST in the AVA Arena (Depending on terrain).
FSO’s:
Friday Nights at 11:00 EST in the Special Events Arena as applicable.
SPECIAL EVENTS:
We will also fly in the Special Event Scenarios AH has from time to time if there is enough interest among the squad's pilots.
We are also planing to fly in the "Sunday European Campaign" starting soon in the Special Events Arena.
OUR GOALS:
The 49th FG's goal is for all members to enjoy participating in a squadron experiencing all the sim has to offer. While at the same time trying to capture the feeling of WWII combat flying.
We are also looking to build a squad with a positive attitude, that will operate honorably in the AVA arena and Special Events.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?
1. As this is a newly forming squad, Leadership positions are open and you can get in at the ground level.
2. Training will always be available for any "Newbies" who would like to join. No experience necessary. Just bring a willingness to learn and work within the team.
3. You will be able to input your ideas for operations and missions to be flown by the squad.
4. You will always have someone there to help watch your 6 and to clear you if you get into trouble.
5. Your own personalized A/C on the squad webpage with your nose art.
6. There is a dedicated Command Structure in place for the squad. Rank, leadership positions and awards have to be EARNED. They are not just freely given out.
7. Your kill streaks and awards displayed on the squadron kill board for all to see.
8. Access to the Squad Forum on the AH BBS where information on all subjects are exchanged.
9. Lastly flying with a squad will increase your flying experience by 100%.

Great guys, some are 353rd alumni, and all are extended family to us at the 353. 49th is a HIGHLY recommend squad to join!

I sure would like to fly with ya, but i'm already in a squad.I got into the game around tour 75 or so and was looking for the very same things the 49th FG has to offer. They told me CT was coming in 2 weeks :lol The 38s have always been a favorate of mine although it's been the most challenging aircraft for me to fly.
I've been in several squads over the last couple of years that claim to use squad tactics but quite frankly, I've yet to see it.The XBOX crowd in AH2 and the mentaltily of most on the 200 channel has put a sour taste in my mouth concerning the game. That has made me somewhat of a loner that loves the game too much to quit. Tryed several times and keep coming back :lol
You guys my be my last hope for redeeming my faith in the game. I'd like to fly with you for a bit to see if you're for real. I have a great wingman in SkatSr and I'm unsure if I want to lose such a awesome squadie. :salute
-
We'd love to have you in our AVA ops. Skatsr is a hard act to follow, but you're most welcome to give us a try. <S>

:salute that's great news! I'm looking forward to flying AvA with the 49th FG :salute

A bit more serious than that, Dan. :O
As of last night, we are down to 5 pilots.

Danger of too big too fast, I'm guessing. Sorry to hear things have gotten goofy.
