#3510161 - 02/03/12 08:20 AM Any East Coast Friendly Squadrons out there? Looking for early evening (EST) flight times.
Goblin Member Registered: 06/16/09 Posts: 268 Loc: Southeastern PA	Hi all, I'm looking to join a squad, but it seems that most squads cater to the Pacific time zone. If I can't get into the cockpit by 9 EST, then it's just too late for me. Anyone know of a group that starts flying a little earlier? Goblin The group need not be a US based group -- I'm just looking for something that fits my timezone a little better.

I mean, realism and application is paramount but without hard-edge Military "This-IS-SPARTAAAA!" attitude... Like, dunno, SimHQ Standards?

Well, that is precisely what I'm trying to do. Perhaps the topic name needs to be changed. I'd like to start flying anywhere between 6:30pm and 9:00pm EST. If you know of one please let me know.

I registered at the Draggins to see the resource info on the site and I think Paul and Eddie (and Ringo? ) are members there? I think I would need a lot more stick time before joining them though _________________________ Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| MSI GeForce GTX 660 Black Knight 2048MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Antec 902 \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 "A nugget of purest green!"

Goblin Member Registered: 06/16/09 Posts: 268 Loc: Southeastern PA	Originally Posted By: Eddie http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=83499 Thanks Eddie, but I've seen that list. Very few, in fact I've seen none, of those squads post a schedule of flight times. I really don't want to register for every squadron on the list just to find out when they fly. O.K. scratch that. You made me go through it again more thoroughly. I saw one that may work! Thanks again.

Eddie Registered Lunatic Member Registered: 05/31/07 Posts: 141	Well, that's because many sqn's don't have set in stone flight times. The 1st for example, of which I'm a member, is one of them. With the way DCS works and dedicated servers running 24/7 people just jump in TS and and fly. Any formally scheduled missions etc are done individually via fourms and other methods. Other sqns may just simply not publish such things, but if you ASK them, they'll tell you. _________________________ Eddie

- Ice Hotshot Registered: 06/23/05 Posts: 7540 Loc: Philippines / North East UK	I don't think squadrons fly at any set time anyway, but rather it is up to the members to organize themselves and fly at certain times. Goblin, correct me if I'm wrong but EST is GMT-5, correct? I fly at around 8-10pm GMT here, so that's anywhere from 3-5pm for you... on nights where I'm not working the next day I can fly until 12mn or 1am no problems I'm on TS3 now and will be flying tonight. _________________________ - Ice
