Trainers available tomorrow evening?
« on: November 25, 2015, 01:55:03 AM »
Hi there,
My player id is Nonjap. I was wondering if any trainers would happen to be available tomorrow evening between 4-9pm eastern time. I know the basics of flight, taking off and landing, some basic ACM. I was just hoping for someone that could help me fine tune some of what I've learned.

I have yet to win the first fight I've been in and I've been in a lot hahaha. I've been told it is to be expected to lose a lot at first. But maybe I could even just stay alive a little bit longer.

Anyway, if any of you guys were available tomorrow I would really appreciate any insight you would have to offer.

Thanks for your time,
Nonjap
 :cheers:

Nonjap I'd be happy to help you, but that time frame tomorrow wont work for me. If you could make it earlier between 12-3pm est, or just about anytime Friday after 12pm est.

I will be able to get on at any time after 4:30 Friday, maybe earlier. Would that be ok with you Sik? Thanks in advance for your help. I like to fly a P-51 btw, Idk if that's important to know or not. But I'm very open minded to anything you have to offer as far as advice goes.

I think you may have to lower your expectations a bit. 7 hours of flying in the last few months total, about the only thing should should expect is  :ahand

SIK will help you get settled, There are so many things to think of and do WHILE fighting that it takes some time to get it all to mesh. We are talking 40 hours a month, 4-6 months just to START getting kills in a fight. Sure your going to get your proxy kills as well as a number of snaggin a guy when he isn't looking but, but for setting up a kill in a fight takes a while to do.

Don't get discouraged, there are some here that still don't "fight" and they have been here for years. It takes practice, time with the trainers to "fix" think you don't even know your doing wrong, and patience! As long as you work at it, you'll get there.

Good luck with SIK, hes a good one. Welcome to Aces High! <S>

Thanks a lot guys. I got my first legit kill just a little bit ago. And yeah, it was total luck but I was jones'd up none the less haha. An LA was tailing me for probably 20 minutes, I just decided to head home and out run him due to being low on fuel. Luckily I flew through some friendly fighters that had an E advantage and shook the LA off. I just happened to turn around and head back to him as he was in the middle of a flat turn right in front of me. CHA CHA CHA boom  :x :x :x. It was a total cheap shot but to me it felt like the ultimate victory! Nevermind the fact that I was shot down 3 times in a row by assorted members of his squad my next three flights lol! :ahand :bhead :bhead :bhead
