The desire to join an RP instead of run one, but the lack of anything being advertised or open that fits my interests

Why are people posting 1x1 'looking for' threads in the main section, when there's a whole section for 1x1 RP's?

It'd be nice to be able to *play* an RP I'm interested in for once, rather than having to *run* one all the time. Of course, doesn't help that I'm picky about what I enjoy.

Hmmmmm... PM inviting me to an RP on Discord by a user who just joined the site and has no posts? Doesn't sound iffy at all, no sir.

Bio
I've been roleplaying in one form or another since the late '90's. I've played as many tabletop games as I have online ones, and the quality of both has varied wildly. I have an active imagination, and I love immersive, descriptive roleplaying. My genres of choice are sci-fi, and modern-day (with a sci-fi twist). I like RP's that mix reality with fiction, and throw an unusual and exciting twist into an otherwise normal setting - something like Stargate SG-1 would be an example, or Battle: Los Angeles. An almost recognizable world, but with some sci-fi twists. I'm a fan of military and action-based RP's that do this especially, and they are easily my favourite - though I rarely see any that appeal to me enough - all the military RP's are too 'plain', and anything else modern day is usually fantasy or fandom. Or *shudder* school RPs...
I have a lot of fandoms; Transformers, Macross, MLP: FiM, Fallout, Battletech, Ace Combat, and others to varying degrees. But I don't often join fandom RPs because the ones I'm into don't come up, or I am very picky about my RPs and their plots and feel.
I don't play in free, as I find the short posts and bad spelling and grammar infuriating. I like a lot of depth, story, setting and character to my RPs, so am usually found in Casual and sometimes Advanced. Though, usually running my own RPs.
I'm 43 years old, and live in the UK, so I may not be on all the time. I also like playing non-human characters, especially anthro ones, robots or synthetics, or some hybrid of both.
Outside of my RP tastes and hobby; I read a lot of books, play wargames and TTRPGs, make model aircraft and vehicles, and am also a brony and furry. I have been running a large local furmeet group for the last 10 years and have been involved in running a very successful UK MLP convention.
No worries, guys. ASTA, I was going to add a bit onto my next post to get your character a bit more integrated with what's going on after your first post, but obviously I'm waiting for a reply first.
Read the background - it'd be hard for it not to be more of an AU. Be creative with the background - there's been a lot of unification of forces and cross-training. I'm sure that fitting in some aircraft carrier training should be a breeze.
Hokay, I'm still waiting for a reply to my last post. If I don't get one shortly, then I will move the plot on a bit tomorrow. I'm pretty eager to get us up and moving on this mission.

Just want to check this is still open to new characters before I start serious plotting.
Mateotis answered the question - you're free to join in and get a character up... as long as you ACTUALLY POST. We've had a lot of problems with people posting characters, being really into it, and then dropping out after one or less posts. IF you're actually going to join in, then you're more than welcome.
Sabres are awesome. I've seen one at an airshow before, and it was a beautiful sight. Also, if you like the Sabre, read 'The Hunters' by James Salter, if you haven't already. It's a semi-autobiographical account of his time as a pilot in the Korean War.
