Howdy all,

I'm Adam and I saw the article on helisimmer about joining up, so here I am. I'm looking a a group of rotor heads to fly with in a mostly relaxed environment that promotes learning and community enjoyment over realism and overburdening rank structure. I am a full time college student currently working on my commercial helicopter license in Utah, USA (MST) and can afford 1 maybe 2 flight sessions a week, preferably on the weekend.

I've been flying in DCS since 2010 and have flown most of the modules but over the last few years I've focused on the helicopter side of the sim. A couple of months a go I picked up a stick extension for my warthog setup and flying helicopters in DCS has become far more enjoyable, with a more realistic feeling, so I've begun a more in depth study into the Mi-8.

A little bit about me; I spent 10 years in the USAF as a B-1B crew chief and one day I had the opportunity to ride in a blackhawk at Nellis AFB and I fell in love with helicopters. After that I decided to get out of the service and become a helicopter pilot.

If, after your considerations, you'd feel like I'd be a good fit around here I'd be happy to try out for it.
