Klaiber Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 All, We're proud to announce a new collaboration with the IRFC and Syndicate squadrons: https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/88061-ad-astra-server/ Let the dogfights begin! . . . Fellow sim pilots, Today is the day that we've been looking forward to sharing with you all for several months. Admittedly, the Ad Astra camp has fallen silent in recent weeks. This silence is because we have been planning a major restructure that will fundamentally shift the composition and goal of the Ad Astra project. Today, Ad Astra ceases to be produced by one squadron. It becomes a true sim collective comprised of the Imperial Royal Flying Corps (IRFC), Jagdgeschwader 1 (JG1), and Syndicate Squadron (SYN). These three squadrons all have rich histories in the sim flying community. IRFC was founded in 2010 and provided "IRFC Bomber Nights" to the fledgling Rise of Flight community; after an 11-year hiatus from server hosting, they founded Ad Astra in mid-2023. JG1 was founded in 1992 as part of the Red Baron online community; in the following decades, they have been pillars of the WWI flying community as producers of the Flanders in Flames campaign. The Syndicate was founded in 2006 and, as producers of the "Sunday Vintage Mission" series, nearly single-handedly kept the Rise of Flight multiplayer community alive for three years. These three squadrons will be teaming up to deliver you the first multi-era server in IL2 multiplayer history. Moreover, we hope to provide a WWI experience that is accessible and enjoyable to the WWII aviation community while delivering a WWII experience that is accessible and enjoyable to the WWI community. We will focus our WWII experience on the first aerial battles of the Second World War. To start, we will deliver the Battle of Britain; the Battles of France and Belgium will follow this. A typical week in the Ad Astra server rotation will look like this: Mondays WWI Rotation Maps Tuesdays "Aces Rising" - WWI Community Event Wednesdays WWII Rotation Maps Thursdays "Aces Falling" - WWII Community Event Fridays "Bomber Nights" - WWI Community Event Saturdays Periodical, Organized Campaign Nights on Ad Astra Sundays "The Sunday Roast" - WWII Community Event Stay tuned for more updates! We appreciate your patience as we strive to deliver this new, exciting gameplay experience. ~The Ad Astra Team https://discord.gg/Swce7jD2Kp Maushake, J5_Hotlead, Britchot and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwig Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 Music... one of my favorites. I actually heard this through the headphones in a B-25 for the first time down in HRL in the early 80s. It was a hoot. Nat King Cole, "Straighten Up And Fly Right" Lipfert and Klaiber 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
