Title: Luftwoffle buffer looking for a squad to fly in Friday Scenario ops with
Post by: EsmeII on April 12, 2013, 07:08:42 PM
<S>! I'm looking for a unit, strong preference for LW (though will consider Allied) that's looking for a LW buffer pilot that's come out of retirement after a few years away.  I was in KG2 in WarBirds until the release of WBIII, then spent a brief spell in AH before having a long break away from flight sims. I've been shaking off the rust this last several weeks. Please note - whilst I can fly - take off, fly around, do aerobatics, land - most things, I am NOT a competent fighter pilot, never have been and never will be.  I can make up the numbers in a fighter sortie as a wingman, and will happily do so, but I am a lousy shot and  don't have much knack for fighter combat. Plus I'm now several years older than when I last played, my eyesight is worse, reactions worse, and I'm getting arthritic :-} I am a competent bomber pilot, however, and enjoy flight-planning, dead-reckoning flying (yes, I know that's not needed in AH, but still..), etc.  If you're a lighthearted bunch that still take a professional attitude to getting the job done, I'm interested. If you are also primarily a KG, I'd be ecstatic, but I've flown with JG's before, I can live with doing so again if need be. :-}

I want to take part in scenarios as part of a squad - the MA in AH is fun, butit's not my natural territory.  I look forward to hearing from you.

~Air Raiders~ is open.  We are a small squad. Been active in FSO for 5-6 years.  We lean toward the LW rides.  We are not active in the Main Arenas anymore--pretty much just FSO.

Good Day Esme,

We could use another pilot for our Bomber Group. We mostly fly in Late War-MA and use a lot of the heavier American Bombers, but I certainly share your enthusiasm for buffs as well as some of my other squadies, so this may be a good match for you.

Check us out...  125th Spartan Warriors. We've been around quite a while and have a good reputation.

PM me in game or on here.
SWtaylor in-game.

Gentlemen, thank you for your responses. I will be in touch with each of you for a wee chat before making an application to join.

We have some very dedicated buff and Jabo pilots in the MA though.
