Hello Redman. I appreciated the admin work you did behind the scenes for us on Saturday. I hope to fly with you soon. 

Hello Redman. I appreciated the admin work you did behind the scenes for us on Saturday. I hope to fly with you soon. 

Hello there Shadow. Our CO @Klaiber will be with you shortly. If you hop on the teamspeak or the discord, you will find members online to start an impromptu sortie with. Specifically, look for our PUG (Pick Up Group) thread for anybody posting in there trying to get the ball rolling. ~S
 

Hello Gents,
This Saturday I'd like to resume regular flying in online sorties after a lengthy respite from IL-2 GB. Myself and @Nicholas will be flying at roughly 8pm UTC. We'll be doing some freie jagd on whatever server seems the most opportune. If anyone would like to tag along, please feel free too; the more the merrier. 
Salute

So here's a fun one....I decided to try my hand at something a little more 'Hunnish' and found possibly the most enraging skin to attempt in the history of FC.....



The Albatros tail section (particularly the closer you get to the tail) is especially irritating to work with on the best of days, and diagonal lines tend to be a real headache....so this Bavarian pattern is turning out to be a real nightmare to try and apply. After starting over at least 7 or 8 times I finally decided that the only way to go about it would to be to individually place the blue squares (pretty laborious task!) 

Here's where I'm up to: 




 

Gratulation Guys, good Job last week! 🙂

Hi All,
A You Tuber , recently lost his battle with mental health issues, he was 27 years young.
If anyone at anytime needs to talk, BS, shoot the shit, or other Please reach out to me.
At 62 (young compared to Vonrd), I'm here if you need to talk to someone, no judgement zone!!!
27 is way to young and if I can help prevent another needless loss, I'm here!!
 

Aloha Gents. Decided to dust off the 'ol joystick and pedals for this one.
