[Hey Y'all]

Team,

Should I focus on a specific plane or be a generalist. I know there are P-38 campaigns on right now, but wasn't sure if I should focus there or with another plane. Any suggestions?

• Cockpit notes mod is really cool, thank you for sharing.
• Currently bidding on eBay for some rudder pedals.

[Hey Y'all]

Thanks again for the warm welcomes. Spent most of last night watching YouTube videos on engine management and will work on my key bindings this week.

• Trying to decide if I need to purchase rudder pedals or if I can get by with Joystick and Throttle? Any thoughts?

[Hey Y'all]

• COMPLEX ENGINE MANAGEMENT - Okay, I will practice up on complex engine management prior to requesting server password to join online battles.
• TANKS - I have not done much with Tanks as that is a module in IL2 I have not purchased yet. I have all the flight modules; however, I just haven't tried tanks.

- Thanks

Hi Danderdogz,

I recently got back into IL2 just a few years ago after moving to north west Arkansas for work and getting a VR rig with Reverb 2 headset. I always wanted to be a pilot as my grandfather was a flight instructor throughout WWII and I have some of his gear, books, and training models of planes and ships. However, I ended up in tech world and use IL2 to scratch my itch to fly and love of WWII aircraft. I have completed most of the missions, scripted campaigns, and a few careers.  It took me about a year, but I finally started playing the scripted campaigns for Flying Circus in VR and love the open cockpit experience (should have tried it sooner). I have been wanting to dive into DCS; however, I think I will save that for when both kids are in college as I don't have the time to dedicate to it between work and family life. At this time, I am just looking to get involved as I think it would be fun to collaborate on campaigns. I may have a little learning curve if manual startups are required, but once I know the requirements I will make sure I am prepared before joining any online campaigns as I am not fond of being the weak link.  

• Does the team fly with Complex Engine management mode?

Thanks everyone...I will go post on the recruitment thread.

Hello from Arkansas,

I have joined the site and would like to be able to get access to your server in IL2 - Great Battles.  I picked the game back up a few years ago, but used to play IL2 - Sturmovik many moons ago.  How does one become part of the team and gain access to the super secret server password as I have exhausted single player and campaign modes?

Thanks,
