Hi, I'm 22 and I've been playing flightsims since I was 5 years old. Ever since my dad let me try Microprose's "Dogfight 80 years of aerial combat" from 1993 and Flight simulator 4 and eventually 95 I was hooked. Also played X-wing, Tie-Fighter and X-wing vs. Tie-Fighter, Strike Eagle III, Back to Baghdad, Falcon, 4 FS 98, 2000, 2004 and X. I also played Novalogic's Comanche 1, 2 and 3 + F-22 Lightning II. Later on I also played DID's Eurofighter 2000 and F-22 Air Dominance Fighter + F-22 Total Air War. Played CFS1, 2 and 3 and more recently I've also been playing IL-2 Sturmovik (2001) and kept playing it for 10 years. I bought all the official expansion packs (minus the pure mission-based ones). I also flew Lock:On flaming cliffs 1 & 2 + DCS blackshark, but even though the super-advanced high speed aircraft I missed the intense dogfights of WW1 and WW2. I currently play IL-2 Cliffs of Dover and Rise Of Flight. I get my quick thrills from RoF and my more serious realism fights from CloD.
In reality I work as an Airforce F-16 Crew-Chief and enjoy my time spent around real aircraft during the day time and sim aircraft at night
There's a private plane club at the base where I can take my PPL once I gather the money and time for it, which I hope to do within the next year if my girlfriend supports the idea of throwing ca 14.000$ on it
.
Nice to meet you all!
