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
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>
