After flying online for a couple of days it looks like i will be stucked here for a while.
Maybe i am blind or missed something but is it possible to see what squad a pilot/plane belongs to in the game?
I know there is a list of squads but is there many squads flying european time zone? If so, can someone please give me the name of a few.
Not that i am going to apply to a squad until i feel ready with this flight model but it would be nice to know who they are and maybe wing up.
Cheers

best thing to do while learning is to join a squad. They can help get into the fm faster then trial and error.
There lots of good squads in ah. I not sure who all is on Euro time though.
Try posting/reading the squadron forums. My squad is currently full but I am sure you will find a home.

If you mean you want to know a pilot's squadron while in the areana, just pop up the clipboard and select "roster".

Hi Zipper.... :) If you look at the roster, people's squads are shown next to their name.... if you click the top of the Squad column, players will be sorted by squad names, grouping squad members together. There are quite a few European squads, the Kraits, of which I am a member, the Wings of Death, 56th Firebirds to name a few. Have a look at the roster during times you are online to see what squads tend to be on at the same time you are. ;)

Keep an eye on the roster for large squads that always seem to have guys on at the times you fly.
The squad i'm in only has 1 rule for recruiting pilots, we don't take 'number' pilots with handles like 45674
I guarentee if you ask on CH1 if anyone is recruiting you'll get someone offering you a place. Beware of saying yes straight away though if it's a squad you've never heard of. Ask who the CO is and check out their squad performance on the stats pages here

Inserting the name of the squad CO instead of *CO handle here*. Don't be afraid to turn down a couple of squads before you accept. Squad life can be great if you get a good one.

LOL gatso..
I never felt comfortable saying "Hi, my name is 6549-2"
What's up with a lot of handles out there being nothin but numbers ??
Like I'm going to remember, or seperate pilot 3456 from 4367 :confused:
There's got to be a reason.....

Oh I'm happy with all the new 'numbers' coming in and there a quite a few...
They're usually the ones that get the stupid join requests, top of the roster see :)
I bet 1/2 of them are flying around with their password as their handle coz they didn't read the instructions.
