I wish in the dive boming area of the training arena, that the enemy bases were located closer to the high alt bases.

Was trying to do some dive bombing training films, and found had to wait 10 mins or so before I reached an enemy base to begin the film.

Would be nice if there was a 1 k base near the 20k base, like 1 sector away rather than 2 sectors away.

There is a airstart spawn you know, that puts you right over the bases.

is it setup wrong? because, when I do it the airspawn only works for the level bombing side, not the divebombing side.

No I didn't know there was an airstart command. Could you fill me in, how does that work. Thought I read the training arena stuff but, alas, still learing after 5 years.

Its all explained on the trainers site: Intro to the Training Arena

Edit: or for the impatient

To the north is the dive bombing area. To make use of the air spawns to that area, simply go to one of those 4 fields, select a fighter from the hangar, and press the NW button under the "Start Flight" area of the clipboard. You will instantly be spawned at altitude 2 sectors north of the field. You will start out at zero airspeed initially, so be prepared to nose down and retract gear (g key) quickly so you can gain enough airspeed for controlled flight.

To the south is the level bombing area. To air spawn to that area, you must have a bomber selected from the hangar, and select the S button from "Start Flight". Again, you will spawn at 0 mph so be prepared to gain controlled flight quickly.

I had thought I had air started before but didn't when I went there a couple of weeks ago. Now I know why.
