Description:
We are flight sim enthusiasts from across Europe who enjoy flying the F16 in Falcon BMS. We strike a balance between ‘as real as it gets’ and ‘grip it and rip it’ flying, leaning more towards ‘as real as it gets’, whilst remembering this is still a hobby and that real life comes first!We have created a bespoke training course called ‘Viper School’ to help pilots who are new to the sim, new to multiplayer flying or just new to working as a unit. Viper School is available to all new recruits. For those that are already comfortable with the content covered in Viper School, we offer a fast track course through Viper School. More advanced training courses are open to all members.
We fly twice a week (Tuesday training nights and Thursday mission nights) and we are looking forward to flying alongside other BMS Squadrons and Wings in the near future, as well as our friends at Falcon Events.

Recruiting: YES
New pilot required qualifications: Beginners and experienced BMS members welcomed, age 18+
Contact person: Gunz_ProSkies
Description:
Today’s ProSkies Falcon BMS community originated in 1999 by a small group who flew the MicroProse publication of Falcon 4. At that time most of the original founders were fans of the franchise and even flew the initial release of the simulator published by Spectrum HoloByte. Over the years our group transitioned through various military flight simulators and fighter aircraft and was previously named Virtual Fighter Squadron 27 (VFS-27) during the Falcon 4 Allied Force years. Our group reformed in September 2020, expanded our online community to include multiple squadrons, and returned to the Falcon series via Falcon BMS. ProSkies focuses on high fidelity flight simulation and strives to accurately simulate real-world flight operations and scenarios. ProSkies has a dedicated Falcon BMS multiplayer server and schedules weekly BMS events. We offer an initial training course for BMS beginners, and we also schedule weekly events for mission ready members. You can join by using the “Sign up” link on our website. -

I am wondering if any of the Virtual Fighter Wings allow the use of labels? I have used BMS for several years, but always used labels on. I admit i find it hard enough with labels. Anybody knows?
-
@Killroy I can confirm the the 308 VFS, of the 56 VFW does allow labels. One of our members requires it.

@JollyFE Great! Thank You very much. Do You have a link to the home page?

Description:
We are a small group who play Falcon BMS from Hong Kong, and our target is to let more hongkongers know about BMS.
424th HKVFS is mostly focus on Mulit-role, doing both AA and AG, also sometime we would do some training for formation flight, Air to Air Refuel and a bit of Aerobatics to increase teamwork ability.
*Squadron founded in 2023 4-24, so we decided to name it 424th -
@jayng9663 It’s nice finally seeing some HK fellows here(我都係). Unfortunately, you’ll most likely not gonna find any more HKer here, due to the nature of BMS/Combat flight sim in general and how everyone is into fast pace arcadey games nowadays lol! (Trust me I’ve tried).
Anyway, If you guys ever need help with anything, let me know!

Hello,
Nice to see a HK virtual squadron !
Will it be Royal Hong Kong Auxiliary Air Force, or People’s Liberation Army Air Force or US Air Force or anything else oriented ?

@Lymark Thx. you’re right, hongkongers life rhythm are pretty fast (包括我), and they don’t have enought time to play slow pace game. I’ve been playing BMS & DCS for a year and half so far, and I know only three hongkongers who play BMS (You are third one)
@Radium Just a fully fiction squadrons, whatever i use Royal or People’s Liberation , This will involve political. I know another gaming (not bms) group in HK that has disbanded for this reason. :<
-
@jayng9663 Yeah, this was why I asked… I was even wondering if BMS was legal in China and special territories (Hong Kong and Macao for example…)
-
@Radium BMS is legal in China, “Chinese Gyrfalcon Virtual Fighter Wing” for example
-
@jayng9663 said in List of Virtual Fighter Wings and Squadrons:
@Radium BMS is legal in China, “Chinese Gyrfalcon Virtual Fighter Wing” for example
It’s like Cuba, BMS is legal until the government sees some kind of ideological threat and they instantly disappear us in all possible ways.
So it’s just a matter of adapting and surviving.
FALCON BMS FOREVER.

@Radium We are Gyrfalcon VFW, live in Mainland China. We don’t talk about political topics and other sensitive things. So authority dose’t care us. Don’ t imagine us as those people live in North Korea. Although we cannot have more freedom compared to democratic countries.
By the way, I partially agree with your point of view“ Taiwan is Taiwan, China is China".
But Do you know about Taiwan authority 's true name? it called “Republic of China”
It’s still China, like west German and East German. those are caused by Chinese civil war after WW2, launched by Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany.
Back to the topic, we have a good relationship with other Asia VFS&VFW, Such as Shizuoka ANG in Japan and 7th VFW in ROK…this is a video we co -op with 7th VFW in Falcon Online Suze :
