Hello

Post by Catseye »

Hi Everyone.
Glad to be here.
I've been flying SIM's since 1985 with a preference for Warbirds.
My favourite rides are the Spit IX and P51.
I'm looking for a "mature" squadron that flies as realistically as possible on a regular basis.
Cheers,
Cats . . .

Hi Buddy, welcome to RAFAIR.

I'm sure someone will be along and point you in the correct direction soon.

I see you like the warbirds! there are VPilots here who fly them but me being purely an F-16 bod I have no idea who the best person to contact is.

Hopefully they will see this message and get in contact.

Good Luck and Welcome

Hi Catseye,
Welcome to RAF Air.
You may need to fast forward a few years as we mostly fly modern modules.

Hi Catseye,

We do have some interest in WW2, but things have gone rather quiet in 19 Squadron lately, so no missions have been flown for a while.

Now the South Atlantic map is out, we may well have to re-enact 663 Squadron's exploits in the Fjords though!

Hi Andrew,
Ha, ha!
I do have most of the modern mules and fly mainly the F-18A and enjoying the F-16 as far as it is developed at this time.
But . . . . I do so much enjoy looking out of the cockpit instead of head down on a computer screen and managing the clutch and gears when trying to beat the crap out of a ne'er do well.

The Dover area is a sweet memory of mine between France and England and the Ferry back and forth - back in the day.

Cheers

Hi Neil,
We've crossed paths in the past at some point I think.
What I'm reading here is that the WWII stuff is in abeyance at this time and the priority is modern jets.

My poor brain boggles at the use of auto transmissions. What I tend to do in the jets is focus on one or two singular types of weapons deployments only.

Thanks for your reply.
