I would like to get a solid hour or so of time with a trainer. Should I schedule that time or just drop in on the training arena?
Specifically here's some background on me and what I am after:
- I'm a 4 year vet of Warbirds but have been retired for nearly 4 years.
- I have a solid feel for the basics of flying AH but yet could use some help with learning the commands...especially radio usage.
I really need help in the following areas:
- Closing speeds. AH planes seem to close MUCH faster than WB's so I constantly find myself overshooting my intended target.
- "Seeing" the enemy. The icon fonts show up just fine. In fact they are too good imo. I find myself focused on the rolling numbers and not on the actualy aircraft I am chasing. The numbers seem to roll so fast (see closing speed above) compared to WB's single digits system that I find it almost confusing and definitely distracting.
- Seeing, understanding, and actually following enemy plane icons. Not the icon fonts, but the airplane "dots" themselves. Seems I can't see much of them at all until I am right on top of them. I.E. - I have a hard time telling which way they are turning. Can't see their wings until it's nearly too late, etc, etc. In other words it's almost as though the plane icons are too small until I get way too close. I would like to be able to see wings dip and such from D600 or so, but I can't. In WB's I can see this at D6 easily.
So is someone available to set up a training time for some one on one?
Thank you!
