Pup, Zach and I are in the same squad.

One bit of advice, decide your style of play then shop squads. Some squads mostly work with American birds, some Navy birds, some bombers, some Spits, etc. We specialize in German Iron, so 190s and 109s. You will find some squads spend half the time in tanks, the other half taking bases.

A thought is to specialize in something long enough to learn the ropes of ACM well. If you are jumping from one plane to the next to the next to the next you will never develop the basics well. Get the basics then jump around to find your home.

If you want to learn the Fw-190A5, Ta-152 or any of the 109s JG5 is a good start to consider.

A bonus for joining JG5 is that Zach will hook you up a date with his sister.

you should not limit yourself to one plane or certain types of planes.

Fly all the planes you like even if they are spits the mighty spitfire is still one of the best planes to learn your ACM and SA and you can easily apply those skills learned from the spits into any other A/C.

Me personally I never understood why some people limited themselves to 1 A/C rather than learn them all to be that much better at Air combat although I only spend most of my time in the Spits or 109K4 but I have had my share of flying multiple planes and can perform in them Just as any other A/C

That is all.  :salute :salute

uh Bone, aren't you kinda telling him two different things at the same time?  :headscratch:

if he jumps from plane to plane without actually learning anything about it's capabilities and limitations, he's not doing himself any favors.

If he Jumps from plane to plane while learning the limitations of each A/C he will have no need to fly only 1 or 1 set of planes he will be able to fly them all.

The guys that limit themselves by flying one plane or one set of planes are those that still have alot to learn about ACM and I try my best when flying to help people learn how to fly and be good at flying.

Flying in one plane for the whole time in 1 tour or heck the whole time you play AH is just not going to teach you anything other than you will be good in that 1 plane not multiple planes.

It would be better for me to explain over comms considering the fact my typing skills have gone to poop from not playing too often.  :lol :lol  :salute

Don't limit yourself to one country. Just my 2 cents.
