see i wouldnt have a problem with that, but the thing is we have people that can manage a fighter and then we have people that are lucky to get off a carrier. So say we had 20 guys do what your saying, about only 10 would last atleast 3 min.
Refreshing to see a mission devoid of the usual suspects (51, 190, Typhoon, 110, etc). I gotta agree with Lepape on this one, looks like a lot of fun potential.
To speak to the quote above, I think it's important to not let fear of "failure" stop you. So you try it any some people in your squad only last 1 minute in the fight, after a few more tries maybe the last 2 minutes, and so on till they get more confidence and develop more. It's been a long time but I still recall what it felt like when I was starting out, and although it was a different game back then (far fewer people online, and a much more limited plane set) I remember taking off in my P-51 and hoping that I wouldn't run into anyone higher than me because I would be completely lost in a fight if I couldn't dive from above to attack, one of the best parts about learning and getting better is being free from that little nagging voice in the back of my head when I used to take off.
While failure, or losing can be frustrating, and is a lot less fun than winning it's also often the only way to learn new things especially when trying something new. When I was in college a professor told me that if I was comfortable with what I was doing then I probably wasn't learning anything. Ultimately it's all about fun and doing what you find enjoyment in doing so please don't interpret this as an attempt to tell you or anyone else how to play, I just wanted to offer up an alternate point of view.
