New Pilot

Post by Grunt » Tue Jun 27, 2017 6:19 pm

Hey it's Grunt, just your average history enthusiast and simulation fan. I reside on the western coast of the United States and I joined to fly for the RAF. I have been playing flight sims since I was a little kid but have never really tried to play them fully immersed in realism. I am here to learn how to fly and fight and improve my skills. Looking forward to flying with the ACG.

Hey Grunt,

Glad you've come looking to join up! If you need any help getting squared away with cliffs and the RAF planes one of those fine gents will be along soon enough. Welcome.

Excellent taste there Grunt - the RAF can always make use of fine upstanding fodder/recruits! Many of the RAF squadrons train on Thursday nights - feel free to pop into our channel on Teamspeak and drop into one of the RAF squadrons. 1930 UK-side is a good time to find people, which is GMT+1 at the moment, so 1030 your time? Failing that, join us for the Sunday mission this Sunday - I think we have another before we take a break for our annual Flying Legends piss-up (let's not pretend it's any more than that) at Duxford. Pop on Teamspeak about 1900 GMT+1 again and you'll be found a squadron to fly with. If you manage Thursday first then we can make sure you won't get your arse handed to you by jerry too soon on the Sunday :D

They say duxford because they have no comprehension about EAA. I hear planes of fame in Chino is nice too...

I used to live a few miles from the Planes of Fame. I couldn't have been more than 2 years old when my father first took me there. I still drive down from time to time to just check on the progress of some of their restoration projects. It's a great collection.
