FTC-RAIDERS bombers squadron Pilot Recruitment

[FTC_Rostic]

The Raiders are a squadron forming part of the "Flying Tin Cans group" (FTC). We fly bombers in FTC campaigns. We fly a campaign mission on Sunday evenings from 18:00 UTC and have training missions on Thursday evenings at 18:00 UTC. Training can be provided for those who join. FTC runs a mission database where we are assigned a character and write after action reports which adds an extra level to the immersion. Other FTC squadrons are also looking for fighter pilots.

So, if you're interested just join us on TeamSpeak on a Thursday or Sunday evening or drop a PM to me or to squadron CO Passion

The 'Flying Tin Cans' or 'FTC' is a multi-national, historical reenactment community who fly virtual campaigns in the IL2 Great Battles simulator. FTC boasts 80+ members from all over the world who come together every Sunday starting at 1800 Zulu to participate in the event. Every campaign is thoroughly researched, sometimes even down to the very days and hours that operations occurred to generate the most authentic and fun experience possible. Squadrons represented within the campaigns are squadrons that flew during these operations, and members represent them with pride, battling it out in the skies of WWII. We also host a Pilot And Mission database (PAM) which catalogues every squadron and the members' reports which are completed after each sortie. Any air-to-air victory, aircraft loss, or even if you were wounded gets recorded in this system. Getting shot down and killed during a mission means you will lose your 'character' and will need to start over with a new name, and hopefully with some better luck! Any and all skill levels are welcome, there are no formal courses or requirements and we have a team of dedicated instructors for anyone who would like help or feels they need to brush up on any aspect of flight sim aviation skills that may need a bit of work. Head over to https://forum.flyingtincans.com/ and introduce yourself!

The Raiders are tasked with bombing the Rail yard at St. Omer.  We faced a determined  opposition. The Axis pilots were implementing "Kamikaze" tactics in their quest to stop our raid.  No matter, we hit the target but we did suffer some loses.  I hope that you enjoy the show.
