Orkan is the Moniker I use in The Zone when I play Combat Flight Simulator 2. It is a German word meaning gale or hurricane. It comes from my casual interest in hurricanes. The size and power of these storms are fascinating.

 

            I am a proud Member of Carrier Air wing 15 CAW15 A virtual online squadron based on CAG15 that flew from the carrier USS Essex  during World war II. We can never repay them for their service, we can only hope to honor these heroes. 

 

                    I am currently the commanding officer of CAW15's Navy Squadron, VF-9 "Fighting Nine". Though we are a military oriented group the prime attraction is friendship and fun. We pride ourselves in teaching people to fly simulators and to help enhance their enjoyment of it. Sign up today at our website.
