What's your call sign in game.

During peak hours you'll usually find a small crowd of regular trainers, new and intermediate polits in the training room to practice with.

I suggest flying with all three groups.

The trainers and Vet's are good for showing you techniques and explaining it in a way that makes sense. Many have been flying for years. Also many are experts in a particular fighter and can help you pull the most out of your chosen ride. Only problem is there are not a ton of vets who spend time in training so you won't always find one in there. You can make appointments with trainers though, for some one on one training.

The Intermediate players are good for practicing with once you have the basics down. You won't beat them very often but they're usually good for pointing out things you're doing wrong. These are usually newer players with a few months under thier belt. They've got the basics down. They're also good for practicing gunnery, against a maneuvering target.

The other new players are good for putting the things you've learned into practice. You can see right away how the techniques you've learned work against someone doing the wrong move. Good for basic gunnery practice.

Another tip for the Training room. When it's a lot of new players on play "tag". Or follow the leader. It'll help you start to recognise the maneuvering characterstics of the different planes.

not totally true ;)

ern, when you're in the TA, look for other people to fly with, and practise together. you can learn something useful from pretty much anyone in there, even the totally new guys ;) i'll look for you
