56 RAF Squadron(v) are a well established Squadron that flies on line and has a healthy mature content among it's membership. We do not have an age limit, only a maturity limit coupled with a sense of humour. Current ages range from 17 to 70.
We like to fly full switch and usually fly on the ATAG or SOW servers but sometime jump into the dogfight servers for a quick bit of relaxation.
Our flying is wingman/formation oriented and we undertake periodic training to keep sharp as well as training on a one-to-one buddy basis for newcomers. We take all-comers whether experienced or complete newbies.
Our Squad nights are Sundays and Wednesdays from 8pm to 10pm UK time but we are usually online before and after that. You will also often find some of us online on other evenings too. There are no strict attendance rules, we find guys either turn up on a regular basis or they fade away. The nature of our squad does tend to attract guys that stay. Did I say 'guys'? That includes 'gals' too - you could be the first!
We have our own Teamspeak3 server for training, special events etc., although when flying in an online server we usually use their TS3 for best comms with others.
If you would like to try us out please use the 'Recruitment Officer' link under 'Contact us' on our Website (
http://firebirds.2ndtaf.org.uk/ ). The website also reflects our history in IL-2 1946 and many of the themes are common to CoD including the Rosters (sim-identified), Training pages, etc..
