Greetings folks!
Glad to see some real faceses to the nicks!
My real name is Mike Vila, born in Barcelona Spain, moved to Montreal Canada at the age of five and afertward to Miami Florida at the age of ten till I was 18. I then moved back to Spain. I did my military service In Spain in the Spanish Legion and stayed in Spain till present, I live in a small town called Arbucies, about 40km from Barcelona. Iam 52 now so some gray is present hahaha.
I got into simming some years ago in a comunity called Seawolves.org at the time we had about 1,700 members in total, it was run by ex military personal so there was a military doctrin for all its members. I was into Jane´s 688i/Hunter killer sub sim and Falcon 4 where I was part of the staff. Unfortunenatly the Seawolve has lost popularity but at the time it was one of the larges comunitys on the net.
At present y fly P3D 2.5 and DCS where aim in a acrobatic team called "Partulla Aguila Virtual" where we imitate the real Spanish "Patrulla Aguila". It´s a real honor to be part of the team and have fun flying both sims. Been with the team for about two years and flying FSX/P3D for about four. Apart from simming I also love to play my Gibson Les Paul
My nick comes from the Canadian group "Rush" which I have been a fan since I was 14, the song "Red Barchetta" and the album 2112.
My first real flight in a C-172
My home town from the C-172 view
A short vid from this years promotion in febuary. Here aim flying in what we call the "dog" position, right behind the leader (Nº1) in Aviodev´s C-101 made by our boss and just like the real thing. Still in Beta...
