JOACH1M,

The best way to get there is to help out in the TA, and in the aces high community in general as much as you can.  Keep in mind when you become a trainer you also become a represenative of HTC, so you have to hold yourself to a fairly high level of integrity within the community.  One of the hardest things I had to do is go from knowing how to play the game, to being able to teach the game, not everyone is cut out to teach.  Sometimes takes a lot of patience, and can be very boring to you, but you have to keep in mind you are there for the student.  The better they get, the more they will enjoy the game.  Good luck on your goal, hope to see you on the roster in the future :aok

I thought I read you have to be at least 18 years old from a previous post in the GD?  Not saying you aren't JOACH1M.

I'm not sure if they have changed or not, dedalos but they used to be the following minimal requirements to be considered for possible recruitment to the AH Training Staff

Minimal Requirements:
-at least 21 yrs of age , but preferably older
-at least 3 years in Aces High game & AH Community
-knowledgeable in the certian aspects of Aces High and ability to pass on knowledge to players ( basic flight, setup controls, vox setup )
-A person who wants to help and is after no recgonition ( if you just looking for a pedistal or "Look at ME" tag / name in lights then this is not for you )
-well received by the AH Community ( does not include Little side groups that attack individual players or have grudges )
-No Bad History on the message boards ( flamers / fight pickers etc... )


used to be something along these lines....... but they may have changed....... don't hold me to this  :old:   

also, usually the one's who ask or volunteer in public would always be the ones put at the bottom of any list, if their was a list....

(edit: these were the guidelines that was laid out when I became invited as a Trainer and also was the guidelines that other Head Trainers as well as I,  used when we were in Rolex's position )

I wouldn't let the age thing discourage you from building a resume Joachim. If you enjoy teaching others then there's no harm in offering to help the guys in the TA when a trainer is not around. If you are devoted and patient enough, who knows what will happen?  :)

Really? Then how do you explain Soulyss being a trainer?  :devil
