What about players that dont know of or belong to the forums?

   There's many players that dont get the imfo from the BBS but they sure could benefit from the help.

Take the course Morf, then you can teach them.  ;)

If there is anyone you want to recommend the gunnery course to, Morf, feel free to invite them and maybe PM me to let me know.   Only recommendation is that they can use in-game voice comms, as that does make things easier.  I have mentioned it to a couple of the new players I've run into in the TA recently, so they know about it and are welcome.  I've factored the possibility of a couple "drop ins" into my numbers. 

If I still have slots open, I was also thinking of making an announcement in the MA before the course starts, time permitting.  I just don't want to get overwhelmed numbers wise, especially running though it again for the first time in a while.

If you just want to tell people I can run them through some gunnery basics, and to just look for me in the TA or MA (in game: RynoRush), that's cool too.  Often I like helping new players more than I like flying in the MA anyway.

Let me know if you have any other ideas.

    :rofl :rofl :rofl    If it was only so simple! :aok


   I make no bones about telling players I'm the last guy to ask for advice on shooting,as my only advice is to get in close and once close,get closer! :lol

   Maybe 1 day I'll have a monitor big enough to see the planes that I'm trying to shoot.


  The only reason I asked about those not on the BBS is because I know alot of players who never read the forums and I didnt want to see them being excluded from a chance to participate.

Good Evening Kingpin,

I just sent you a personal message regarding your 2 upcoming Gunnery Courses , tomorrow night and Thursday night, Sir!

would you mind if I sat in on your Gunnery Course  for Weds night and Thursday night as well

I applaud you for stepping up and offering this to the AH Community!  ~SALUTE~

All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

A snappy salute to Vudu15, who took the time to run through the course, film it and discuss topics with me afterword.

Thanks for your dedication to helping the AH community!
