Hello all,
Just a line to say ‘hello’.
As a matter of interest I am looking to join a new squad, reason is that in my current squad most of the members have decided to take a ‘sabatical’ for various reasons, and being a sad barsteward I feel I need a squad to fly with.
Bit of history on myself.
Ex army bloke who now works for Her Majesty (gawd bless 'er) who has been flying il2 since it came out.
I have a mid/high spec PC with all the bits (trackir4 pro, mic etc) and fly soley ‘Full Switch’.
I seem to have an addiction to skinning Allied aircraft for this game, but mainly Spitfires and Hurricanes.
So there you are, if I get any answers I would like to hook up on night for a fly around (although I am working nights till the 15th April)
Are you THE Kristorf by any chance - skinner extraordinaire?? If so in the words of Wayne and Garth: ‘We’re not worthy!’:w00t: :w00t: Always amazed by your screenies posted on simHQ!!
You’ve come to the right place with EAF anyhow WE fly full switch too and I’m sure you’ll find someone for a test fly round with. What’s your HL nickname and I’ll look out for you?
All the squadrons in EAF are good - so take your time to see which you’d like to join but a quick advert for the one I’m in - 602 Sqn (part of EAF) before the other sods get in and start making cracks about haggis (i’m English so we are a mixed bunch ) - you can be assured of a warm welcome, lots of banter and beer!
Did I say beer again?
Anyhow mate -welcome to the forums and hope to fly with you soon!
You’ll find the EAF very welcoming. Most have seen you’re skinning talents.
Looking at the squadrons in no particular order, you’ve got 19, 602 and 92 all based in the UK. 331 in Sweden. 310 and 332 a mix of Dutch, German, Estonia. 51, Italy and Spanish. (Hoping I’ve not missed anyone)
Have a look around in the various forums and get stuck in.
If you’re looking for a new ‘home’ you’ve come to the right place. I can only ditto what Keets said above. All the Squadrons here are good people to fly with
