Hello 476th vFG. New AH-64D Pilot!

**BPatrick** · 11Apr22, 14:03

Hello 476th vFG.

I have been involved in DCS for some time, but have recently returned from an extended absence. I originally was learning to fly the F/A-18 C.

The recent release of the AH-64D has brought me back to DCS and I am really looking forward to learning to fly this amazing aircraft. I am still very new to helis and learning every day but have a long way to go before I am proficient as a pilot.

I am looking to be part of the 476th vFG as an AH-64D trainee.

A little about me. I am a US Army Veteran where I served as a 14T - Patriot Launch Station Operator. I currently live in the Pittsburgh, PA area.

Hello! Welcome to the forums. We've so far taken in a first batch of Apache trainees and we are just working on getting a syllabus up and running. Obviously this is a new module, and we've not had an active rotary wing squadron for some time here. Once our first batch of trainees are through initial training we will certainly be opening up more AH-64D slots. Have you found our discord yet?

Hello Scaley,

Yes I have found and joined the discord and introduced myself.

One question, BPatrick72 is not a username/callsign that I would want to keep. Is it possible to change it in the future?
