ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Hey, Flanky here—welcome to Situational Awareness!

Military combat, especially air combat, has been a lifelong passion. I still remember being four years old, recreating battles with my little jets, tanks, and boats, already captivated by the thrill of it all. That fascination only grew as I got older, leading me from gaming to the world of combat flight simulations. Along the way, I discovered programming, sports, and martial arts, each adding a new layer to my journey.

What began as a small fan site in 2012 has transformed over the years into something far greater. It’s been incredible to see how far one inner spark can go—especially with the support of a dedicated, passionate community. Here’s to pushing boundaries together and keeping that fire burning bright!
