Welcome, and don't feel too bad if you don't get "good" right away. This game is good in that everyone finds thier nitch, whether it be tanks, bombers, fighters, gunnery, etc...
Have fun. <S>

Welcome aboard.

Valuable info can be found at
http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/    A few sessions with one of the trainers will help soften the learning curve.

Also, check out www.netaces.org.

Good luck :aok

Hi there,

I just typed a similar link list for a new squaddie, so here you go:

This shows you how to set up your views...  You can't fight what you can't see.

http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/views/views.htm     

Here is Murdr's head positions file. This is a quick-fix for the head positions.  You may still want to make minor adjustments.

http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/files/murdr/hpsfiles.zip

You're going to want to extract those to: HTC/Aces High II/Settings/Planes

This talks about Situational Awareness...

http://trainers.hitechcreations.com/sa/sa.htm             

Here you can find detailed writeups for most planes...

Enjoy your stay :)
