We will be having our first flight since our overhaul at VUSAFS, and I'd like to extend an invitation to everyone as FSW to join in...
...especially since we don't really have any active members right now, and a flight with no people is a boring one
We'll be running an F/A-18 mission to provide Close Air Support for ground forces in Afghanistan, so if you'd like to participate, here's the flight information:

Mission:
Provide Close Air Support (CAS) for International Security Assistance Forces (ISAF) in support of Operation Enduring Freedom

Ground forces from the Marine Corps' 2d Battalion, 7th Marines, Echo Company and soldiers from the British Army's 3rd Mechanized Division, 1 Brigade, 4th Battalion are conducting operations near the town of Gereshk in the Helmand Province of Afghanistan. Because there has been increased activity by Taliban militants in this area, F/A-18s from the USMC's Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 122 (VMFA-122) will provide CAS from the U.S. airbase at Kandahar.

-You may also use your own F/A-18 if you'd like
Flight Plan
We will depart Kandahar and head westbound to Gereshk on a heading of 280°. Gereshk is approximately 70 miles west of Kandahar, but our area of operations (AO) will be more spread out, so do not follow the direct flight plan, as instructions will be provided following departure.
Servers
-TS and FS: 24.93.181.94
-Servers will be online 30 minutes prior to the flight but may be offline until then.
Simulator Settings
Time: Noon (1200 local)
Weather: Clear all weather. Use server weather.
Remarks
Please log onto the server off the runway and parked with engines off. There will be a quick pre-flight briefing and then we'll head out. Please be on time and make sure you have the proper setting inputted into FS. If you have any issue, post them here. Empty out external fuel tanks if you have them. This is a short-radius mission, so we won't need to burn the extra fuel.
See you on the flight line.
