Hi Bandersmatch, Welcome! I'll send you a message to the email you registered with. I should mention that most of our attention is focused on IL-2 Great Battles and Flying Circus. But that we are currently flying Rise of Flight in a tournament. Either way, looking forward to talking with you more soon.

Eagle Dynamics developing WW1 would be absolutely wonderful. I really think it could shine within that platform. However, I agree that the DCS community, as a whole, wouldn't embrace it quickly. WW2 stuff got flak for years for "taking resources away from the *real* aircraft." Few, if anyone, says that now, but it was a common mantra amongst the jet-jocks about 5 years ago.

Definitely let us know what you think!

Yeah, it's rough at the moment. Probably done by one person.

And the thread where it was posted: https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/259748-ww-1-dcs-world-flying-circus-beta/?tab=comments#comment-4548285

Yeah, you would need to download DCS World Open Beta: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/downloads/world/beta/ And create an account. You would then have access to the two free aircraft - the TF-51 Mustang and Su-25T. Then, you would just need to download the mod and install it. Which should be just a folder drop. I can't speak to the quality of the mod, but it looks promising. Here is a livestream using it:

That sucks Jaus.

I see they supposedly fixed the invisible Fokker D.VII.

Yup. I just hope my CV1 can survive until I need a new computer.

How cool!

This is my kind of jet!

Is that a MiG-25 or a MiG-31? I can never tell them apart from the front. Either way, yes please. If they were in DCS, I'd lose my sh!t.

Hi @BaronVonMyakin, sure! I'll add them to the Blue Team. Good luck today!

We mostly fly German on all of the current maps. But, sometimes we moonlight in the Allied aircraft. We're on Finnish Server a lot. http://stats.virtualpilots.fi:8000/en/

Hey Katze, The DCS WW2 aircraft are great, and I can't wait for them to add more aircraft and units. They're a joy to fly, really. For big servers and events, IL-2 Great Battles still has the edge. Which is part of the reason why our squadron focuses that way. Most of us have bought Tobruk, the most recent IL-2 Cliffs module. But we haven't really flown it very much. A lot of us have switched over to VR, so going back to TrackIR is hard. Either way, if you're interested in rejoining, just let me know. I'll PM you our TS information regardless, and you can check out our calendar of events here: https://jg1.org/schmenkel/calendar/ You're more than welcome to fly with us, even without an application. Talk more soon.

Great shot, Hess!

Hi JS_Keko, You've been added to the Red Team. Make sure to join the FIF Discord channel with a recognizable name. Once you're there, I'll add you to the Red Team Discussions. https://discord.gg/GRErqzP Here is a link to the tournament calendar: http://forum.jg1.org/topic/3010-flanders-in-flames-calendar/ Missions are on Saturdays at 2PM EST / 7PM UTC. On mission days, we recommend that everyone arrive about 15 to 20 minutes early. The server password is passed out via Discord. Should you have any questions, just let me know!

Katze from IL-2? Wow, it's been 16 years. Great to hear from you! Within DCS, we see ourselves as primarily a REDFOR group. So, the MiG-21bis, the MiG-19P, the MiG-15bis, the L-39 Albatros, and the Mi-8MTV2. We're anxiously awaiting the Hind. And the MiG-23. We also actively fly the Mirage 2000C, the F/A-18 Hornet, the JF-17 Thunder, and the F-14A/B Tomcat, as well as Flaming Cliffs stuff. However, we also fly the DCS WW2 stuff as well, as German - the K-4, A-8 and D-9. Mostly on Storm of War. Though I should say that our WW2 activities are mostly in IL-2 Great Battles. Is there a specific aircraft you're looking to concentrate in?

Great video! Thanks for posting Baron!

Thanks! I'm going to take you up on that. I can sorta tank in the Mirage. And sorta tank in the F-14. But not enough to depend on it. It sounds like it!
