Good stuff. 8 weeks of A8s then summer break then P47s.

Better ever a move on!

Easiest to get them all during the sales that pop up now and then.

Have a look in The Lounge Bar for the TS details and the Ops Room for the game settings. If you can’t see those rooms let me know.

Badger is still in the main TP Users group, so he should have no problem seeing those rooms :thumbsup1

I think so. Spawning in etc is new for me so that might cause a cock-up or two.
I'll be around to night anyway, so if I should practice something for the Sunday I can.

Hi Badger spawning in is with engines off so no problem.
Taxi to take off in the FW190 can be tricky so worth practicing.

(S!) ALL,

Just introducing myself.

My steam id is "DDG3". My preferred player name is "Baggley" I haven't got a nickname yet, but perhaps "Bags" could work.

I haven't flown any IL2 for several years. I used to be a member of the =AVG= (IL2 1946); I would've rejoined them but couldn't find their website - so I assume they no longer exist - hence my search for a new group.

I consider myself a beginner because I'm pretty rusty.

I submitted an application, and am looking forward to re-engaging IL2 - I have the original IL2 Sturmovick, COD/Tobruk and BOS.

I'm fully retired, live in NC USA.

Regards,
Baggley
