UK VA for a beginner..

[tcain]

Hello everybody!

I'm a new member around here, and new to the world of flight simming generally! A friend let me have a go on fs2004 a month or so ago and since then I have acquired my own copy, a joystick, and lost a whole load of time! (I say lost.. I don't mean it!)

Im currently away (I'd say on business, but I'm a geologist) getting wet and cold in Scotland but i've decided when I return at the begging of next month I'd reward myself with FSX and start getting further into FS by joining a VA. I therefore pose the question: does anybody have experience with a (preferably) UK based VA, that welcomes beginners and has members with the time and patience to lend a helping hand every so often?

I've had a brief google and looked at some of the online lists of VA's but I thought that I'd ask here as well!

Many thanks for your time,

Tom

Hi Tom!

I spent quite some time trying to find a VA that wasn't going to dictate to me what aircraft I was "allowed" to fly, where I had to fly it, and when. I'm now happily flying for these people:-

No rules, no restrictions (except that they do like you to be able to record one flight every three months, but that's hardly a problem).

For me, that's the way all VAs should be.

Cheers,

Brian
