Since um, about June 2011, lol.

Yeah, I'm a latecomer to the series.
My first sim was FSX I got for Christmas 2010.

Since demo days. I was into Rowans BoB at that time, but was getting annoyed of it, as official support seized and you had to fiddle with many thing to get the thing working.

Was blasted away because Il-2 worked out of the box and immediatly joined a online squad of former Warbirds veterans. First time I discovered online-gaming. A blast.

I`m still member of said squad, however I quit flying Il-2 a few years ago, as I didn´t have enough time to be more than a target.

I still hope, CLOD will bring back that old times again. Some day.

IL-2 Demo in the Summer of 2001 is the first time I flew online with a combat flight sim. The addiction was instant! And the money started falling out of my product. Hardware upgrades, multiple Flight setups before finally spending the money on CH Products and TIR. From 2001-2008 every thing I did to my PC had to do with IL-2.

LOL you're right. I fixed it in the first message to make things clear.

eaah.. i think since 2002 (first sturmovik :-) )

2002.

I started in late 2010 with IL-2 1946.

Had been playing CFS 1 about 8 years ago. And of course FS 2004 a bit.

So I'm a big newbe to flight simming.

Since original B17 game (and the board game version before that)Il2 since the begining and EAW,Flanker .

I join the "Since demo" club :). The first information I've read, was in the PC Format magazine. iirc was around 2000. At the end of 2002 I joined to the VO101, i never forget the bloody VEF 2 battles over the East-Front :cool: Since then, it is the only game that all the time is installed on my PC (even if my squadron is quite scattered, and only a few times started since i bought the clod...)

Another demo club member here. :grin:
