Unfortunately roster slot openings are pretty infrequent, which is a reflection of how
VFA-41 does business. Part of why our pilots stay is because of the purposely limited pilot roster. Each
Black Ace knows that he is an integral part of a team, not just another name on an infinite roster. As such, our
stated participation requirement is to fly at least once a week. A pilot who can't manage at least that is of little value to the squadron.
As you are probably aware, there are many other DCS carrier squadrons out there that will automatically add any and all applicants, with their primary goal being to attract the greatest number of members possible. That's how they measure success. Many
Black Aces are refugees from those huge, dysfunctional squadrons. It's easier to appreciate being part of a good organization when you've been in a bad one...
That all said, we do occasionally have a slot open, but they tend to fill quickly. All you can do is keep checking back for the 'JOIN' button to re-appear on the menu bar.
