Hiya Redtail, welcome to the crew. I mostly fly CLOD Blitz/Tobruk, but I have dabbled in DCS (didn't much care for their flight or damage model). I try to be on 2 or 3 evenings a week, when life permits. I'm located on the West coast of Canada so that makes me PST, which is GMT-8. I work shiftwork so when I'm working evenings, I can sometimes get on in the morning which would be your afternoon/early evening, so if you see me online don't hesitate to jump in and say hi.
BTW, I too work in law enforcement - I'm a prison chaplain, hence the moniker "Padre"
Hope to see you in the virtual skies soon!

Welcome aboard Redtail, retired LEO as well, though under circumstances different from your own.

Hope to see you in the virtual skies soon! Thanks for the welcome Padre, with the thanks coming from a Padre's son late of the Royal Navy. I will keep a look out.

First name Mark.
DOB Mar 1958.
Currant time Zone - GMT.
Flight sims : IL-2 COD since 2012 now Tobruk. BOS and DCS- F-14 ,Mirage and Warbirds Spit, 109 and Anton. DCS flown on SOW server and Dangerdogz server.
For all of the above I prefer the Warbirds and in particular the Spit and Hurricane. DCS Fast jets require regular use in order to remember controls!!
Personal Details: I am a retired police officer of 30 years, 24 years on Traffic -bikes 'Black Rat' and cars and armed response for three years.
Retired to the Northern Highlands of Scotland for peace and quiet Hill walking /climbing and running a live steam garden railway.
Both my wife and I are Falconers and have flown and hunted with until recently our 20 year old American Redtail called Rufus.
I also enjoy military figure painting ,all periods but now 120mm only!
being retired also means I am able to fit in with other time zones during the day.
How did I hear about you? I saw TWC pilots come up in the COD server and caught a few of BlackKnight's vids. Liked what I saw, enjoyed the banter, and so here I am.
Welcome Redtail and greetings from Brisbane Australia. There's a few regular UK pilots on CoD so you will have good company getting you up and running. I am usually on CoD 1941 late afternoons AEST which is early morning (6am onwards) UK time. I am originally from the UK but left there in 1998 to work abroad across Europe, Middle East, Africa and now retired in AsiaPac. Catch you in the skies..!! Fyl
