Who are the 'Tangmere Pilots' ?
Why fly a WWII flight sim? And why join a fighter squadron in the Royal Air Force of the 1940s? If the answer is because you are interested in all things WWII, and especially military aviation, then you have come to the right place.

The 'Tangmere Pilots' exist in the 'virtual world' of 1940s Britain. King George VI is on the throne, and Prime Minister Winston Churchill is leading the nation in a desperate fight for survival against Adolf Hitler's Third Reich. The men and women of the British & Commonwealth Armed forces stand alone against the irrepressible might of the Axis war machine. In the skies above the British Isles and mainland Europe, as well as in the Mediterranean and the Far East, the aircraft of Royal Air Force, and the Royal Fleet Air Arm, strike relentlessly at the enemy.

'Tangmere Pilots' live, for the most part in the real world, with all its complicated responsibilities and potential consequences. But the virtual world allows him to climb into the cockpit of a 1940's fighter aircraft, and soar into the virtual sky of WWII.

Knowledge of the period, as well as the ability to 'live the part' is essential if one is to get the most out of your time with the 'Tangmere Pilots'.
