Well, i am not from the early days, but here goes the way i met IL2: i only boght computer in january 2006, and i was already 30 y.o. I allways liked aircraft. At the time i had Microsoft FS9. The only time I had played a combat flight sim was a in a friends house(CFS2) and only for 5 or 10 min.. For one ocasion i was in a store that had the il2 forgoten battles, low price, and i didnt bought it, i was hesitating between the CFS2 and il2 and didnt aquire any one. Anyway, the cover of il2 forgoten battles made me think the game was a real crap! So, by october 2006 i had a surprise: My sister bought me the game, just like that, (it wasnt even my birthday). And since than, i am a big fan of il2. When i went for the fist time online i new already quite well the game(most stuff learned by myself, trial and error) but had no experience in combat with humans, so had to learn a new bunch of stuff (still am learning a lot). The first guy that "gave me the hand" was X32wright. Was fun!
So a big thank you for my sister, and also for the il2 comunity.
