IL2 tonight!!! 7 or 8est (whenever people show up)

I just got IL2 installed, finally, and I have all my controls setup. Hopefully I'll be able to fly/crash-and-burn with you guys sometime this week.

Announcements updated. New thread posted. :getin:

Die for one of the following: Hitler's slave labor profits, Roosevelt's internment profits, Truman's Atoms profit, Mussolini's pasta profit, Churchill's booze profits, Tojo's rice profits, Mannerhiem's salmiakki profits, Stalin's gulag profits, and occaisionally Kim Il Sung's kim-chee profits.

Get on, there's no practice like flying against flesh-and-blood-and-fat pilots.

Hey there goons, I'm a big history/engineering geek from Canada, finally getting my first stick and getting into "modern" flightsims (played DOS flightsims in my youth) which means I'm a novice pilot at best.

Should I practice my dogfighting first or play with you guys?

Current server announcement updated.

Supporting that at least listening in on mumble be required, it makes it a lot easier to see who's in-game. Besides which, piece-of-♥♥♥♥ microphones are inexpensive, easy to obtatin, and perfectly good enough for the bandwidth we're using, so there's not much excuse for not getting one!

And that's why you're player of the week, Jae. :P

I HAVE OVER 200 HOURS OF FLIGHT TIME IN THIS GAME? WTF I NEED TO GET A LIFE

In the thread I've proposed making it a requirement that people who want to fly must get on Mumble (and preferably have a mic). Reasons are in the thread. Thoughts?
