Ryan Badger Posted September 14, 2022 at 05:11 AM Posted September 14, 2022 at 05:11 AM Hello! I am pleased to introduce the Virtual Royal Canadian Air Force (vRCAF) to the general flight simulator community! The vRCAF is a new military operator based on the day-to-day functions of the Canadian Air Force. We pride ourselves in upholding a thorough and realistic version of RCAF operations. This organization is staffed by longtime virtual special operations members and aims to push the niche world of military flying forward. If you fly in/around Canada, you may see our CFC callsign tick up every once and a while as our staff begins flying (the great reward for our backend work the past months!) Training is a critical part of our organization and is one of the requirements set by VATSIM to apply for/maintain special operations status. Our pilots are initially separated into tracks based on their chosen primary airframe. This track dictates how their training will flow. This initial training is rigorous, but should only take around 10 hours, no matter the airframe. This initial training will prepare you for the tasks assigned during operations and is greatly rewarding. Once initial training is completed, pilots begin their time as active duty, mission-ready officers in the vRCAF. Pilots can expect to fly around Canada for events and exercises, but also around the globe as our partners, and our scope is truly worldwide. For pilots who have been around the special operations community, this rundown likely sounds familiar to other operations around the virtual world. Our goal with the vRCAF is to push this interest forward. Our primary mission is to build a community. Military aviation does not happen alone in the real world, nor should it in the virtual world. The vRCAF will be organizing regular internal training/operation days where all available can fly together, utilizing their specific airframe to work towards a common goal. Obviously at this time we are working towards achieving VATSIM Virtual Special Operations status. We are currently operating all A-B flights on the VATSIM network, with plans to eventually expand operations on VATSIM as soon as we achieve the vSO status. If this sounds like the place for you, we implore you to check out our website, http://vrcaf.org - there is more information there about our organization. If you have specific questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me! Cheers all! Ryan “Bucky” Badger Commander, vRCAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
