October 22, 20215 yr comment_72661 How's it going everyone! I've been searching around for a group to help improve my flight sim aviation skills as I can only learn so much on my own, along with make new friends and accomplish team-oriented sorties with. I'm new to the flight sim world having only a few months under my belt but I'm glad I discovered IL-2 as it checks all the boxes for what I've always found an interest in - WW2 air combat. JG1 is also very appealing specifically because of my interest in German BF109's and FW 190's and the men who flew them, and the historical ode to a real Luftwaffe unit. I hope to contribute to JG1 any way I can although I am very much a beginner. What is your Timezone? UTC -04:00 (Eastern US) Do you have a joystick or HOTAS? Yes Do you have TeamSpeak and Discord installed, as well as a working microphone? Yes Do you have VR, TrackIR, or a FreeTrack system for view control? TrackIR What sims are you currently flying? Mostly IL-2, with some DCS and MSFS How did you hear about JG1? IL-2 Forums Is there anything else that you'd like us to know? I'm active duty military so my availability changes unexpectedly, with upwards to a month gone at a time for training events, however when I'm home I'm getting as many virtual flight hours in as I can! Hoping I can use this passion to get a PPL one day. Report
October 22, 20215 yr comment_72664 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 Report
October 22, 20215 yr Author comment_72673 Thank you for the warm welcome Beans! Do you happen to have the TS pw on hand or should I be getting that another time? Also, in keeping with the Luftwaffe theme I felt it more appropriate to go by a German display name. I hope the sudden change isn't forbidden! Report

Our CO will send a welcome email to you and it will give you a couple things to read and then invite you to the TS/Discord servers. It shouldn't be too long from now. Picking a German persona is part of the process, so don't worry and a Heron is a very reasonable selection. Report
