Just curious, is this the only game you don't play or do you also not play that other WW2 game, the one that isn't primarily a flight sim?

How is that a bad idea? Or at the very least one that leads you to belive I don't play? I think the idea of a training arena is to help people improve, and get better. Not just in flight but in dogfighting, bombing, and gv'ing.

Maybe because there already is a training arena in AH. You might want to check it out sometime.

Yes, but anyone can go in, anyone can shoot, anyone can bomb. I suggested that only people of a certian skill level or people with a low KDT ratio, or whatever you wish to use to show someone who could use improvment, could shoot, or bomb, or things on that order, while anyone can go in. It was a suggestion to keep more expirenced pilots from shooting up newbs (they wouldn't be killed, but would keep flying, similar to the planes circling the airfield in the offline arena), and from driving them off. But they can still have a newb joined to them and that will allow them to fire and bomb, and things on that line, but only to demonstrate tequnique and good form.

Just avoid landing lessons from Guppy35,....unless you are fond of bent, ripped, mangled, mauled, mashed, crunched, warped, stressed, distressed, fractured, bullet riddled and/or missing pieces. :)

And welcome to the game!

Crazyivan, can you show me where? I know some people that could use some of those shot off parts to fix their rides.

I have outlets all over the Main Arenas.  Just look for bits of bright green trim on the spinners and rudder tips.  If you find a gun bay door it says Corky Jr on the outside.  Should be parts all over the place.
