I have a hard time scheduling everyone via e mail so I am posting here to try to get all the ducks in a row. All requests and scheduling for my training sessions can be posted here.
Last time I did training it quickly got out of hand and was a bit unorganized so Hopefully things will go better this time around.
I also wanted to post some of my requirements for training and also what I will commit to the trainees.
What I expect....
All training sessions will be conducted using the Spit mkV. Thats what I fly and what I teach in. You will find that the things you learn in this aircraft will easly transfer over to any other aircraft. With few exceptions.
Bring a good attitude. If you are just wanting to "Duel" to kick my arsse then just get with me for some duels not training. If you have a "Chip" on your shoulder then we wont be training for long.
I do not teach Boom and Zoom tactics. Be ready to knife fight when you arrive.
You should have a basic knowelege of dueling practices. They can be found here...http://www.flightladder.com//rules.php?ladderid=3#rule20
Dont go AFK for long periods of time. I will not wait around for you. Quick breaks are no prob. Long ones are.
Things to keep in mind.....
I advise you to film all of the session. It will be valuable to review later on.
Sometimes personalitys just dont "Click" If we are not getting on well then I probably wont schedule more sessions with you. Dont take this personal.... its not personal.
I will be able to help some players more than others. It depends on you natural ability......your attitude..... and how far along your skills already are. The better you are the less I can most likley do for you.
I am willing to commit at least 1 hour of my time to each training session. I will not commit to more that 1 session per night.
Be prepaired to get shot down alot. Its part of the learning process.
If you disagree with what I am trying to teach thats fine. Just speak up.
Anytime during the training sessions that you can shot me down please do. It helps me to improve and also is fun for you.
I guess thats all. I have Edbert scheduled for 9:30pm est time tonight.
What time works for you tomorrow DmdMax?
Please feel free to post any other requests.
c yas up.... Dave

saturday @ 9 is fine. See you there!

One other thing I should add is that sessions may be cancled due to a variety of reasons.
I have two young boys...... I dont think I need to explain this.
I suffer from migrane headaches. They are intermintent and unpredictable. I cant fly when I have one.
ISP outages of course can occur anytime.
Any cancelations will be posted in this thread so if im not there on time check here.

You got PM ;).

Nomak:
If you can manage next Tues or Wed any time after 9:00 pm, please let me know.
Meantime check the PM I sent you and let me know if alternative times work.

DmdMax

Nomak,
I understand your availability may change, and I know that you're booked in pretty well right now. I am in no hurry, but I would like to get "in line" before the gate gets closed. I learn best from the analytic, element by element approach for which you've been praised.
I'm flexible -- EST evenings on workdays, and can work around most weekends.

Meet you in DA then.
Thanks a bunch.
-
Edbert..... I am convinced that you have a Stick/Setup issue. I was in the DA with Wadke later on last night and I mentioned it to him and he said he noticed the same thing.
Just my opinion but if you have another known good stick at your disposal I would try it. Or even mabye pick up a $30 Saitek stick to try for comparison.

I'm 95% sure I'll make it. I'll be there tonite 9pm either way, in the DA -- with recorder charged and plenty of band aids!
If it falls thru I my end , I'll show up to let you know....
(Just saw your invite post this am, and havent been able to assure the evening's clear of ack yet)

Hi Nomak

thanks in advance DogFart
-
If anyone get a training session with Nomak . Could they please post the film. Also if Nomak could post his films as well it would be a great help. Some of us might be able to learn without having the training session if we can see some film footage.

I would rather not RWY. The training is one on one and I would like to keep it that way. The stuff we are working on isnt for the entire community at large to just peep in on. It is for the people who take the time and energy to schedule training and put thier best effort in at the training session.
I do post films in this forum from time to time if thats what you are interested in. I have two of them up right now. I can post others if you would like me to. I have the film of our duels from recently if you want to see those.
Not trying to flame you at all Sir..... I would just rather not post the actual training films.
Dave

Hi Nomak, yes, pls DO POST ur dueling films, as I've lots to learn &
would be happy to garner more golden nuggets of flite/tactics from u. TY :)
Cheers,
Happy1 :D
-
Can post any of the films you have dueling with me anytime Nomak. I think they'd help with people wanting to learn to exploit scissors since we always end up in them and they are nasty.
Bud. Remember anytime you need a dueling partner you let me know or if you want help training people i can help. You helped me and so have many others.

Ok I got alot of good DA action on film tonight. Its to late tonight to go throught it and post it but I will put it up tomorrow night after my training with Schatzi.
Dave
Edit.... I should clarify..... I am going to post "Dueling" films not "Training" films.
-

Nomak will turn ya into a killa!!! w00t:p

Thank you again for your time Friday night. Learned a great lot in that short hour. Rewatching the film first fight to last, there are worlds in between. Now all i have to do is put what i learned into good use. Easy, huh?? ;).
And no, i dont think anyone else can get much training out of a film made with anyone else. The training is largely individual. Nomak has an amazing ability to adapt his flying and explanations to the requirements of the trainee, making you do your best and go beyond, without making you feel like a newb altogether (even if you *are* one).
for that Dave.
In the no-holds-barred duels afterwards, you showed me you could still kill me in under 10 seconds. Loved that :p .
Ill try to do my homework now, and hope we can hook up again in a few weeks.
-
I'm gonna have to be weary when next we meet then Schatzi:p :D

I am glad you had fun and found it productive.
You are a quick study and have good natural ability. I expect very good things from you in the future.

Wednesday is gonna be my regular TA night. The stuff I am doing here will have to be on another night.
Also..... During the week I cant very often get on before 8-8:30 my time. I am sure we can schedule something though..... lemmie know.

Schatzi,
While I might not be on par with Nomak, I'll fly afew with ya. It can be helpful fighting those of roughly your same skill anyway, makes things more interesting. If ya want to pick on a dud just let me know.:p

I would appreciate some training as well. Almost any night is good at 10:00 p.m. (EST). What is your preference?
As you posted earlier, one hour for training is a good time limit for me. I need to fly the MkV more.

If its gonna be 10pm it will have to be a Friday or Saturday night. Thats to late for me to start during the work week. This upcomming Sat is KOTH so the soonest would be a week from this upcomming Friday.
Let me know.
Dave
-
Hi Nomak,
If it is more convenient for you, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday nights after 8:00 pm are good. Otherwise we can shoot for next Friday (the 28th) at 10:00 pm. I really want to do this and appreciate your offer.
Regards,
Malta

All DA training is suspended at least until the connection problem is fixed. I am considering scrapping it all together as I will be in the TA every Wednesday night from here on out.
I will keep everyone posted.
Dave
-
Last night I spent over 20 minutes trying to get from MA to DA back to MA. The person I was going to work with couldnt make it anyway so it didnt matter. However if he had made it he would have been all alone as I couldnt log in.
I am going to restructure as follows..... Wednesday night I will be in the TA from 8-10pm est time. All are welcome to come out and play/train with me. On Friday nights I will be available in the DA from 8-12pm est time, again all are welcome to come play/train with me.
This will work much better for me as opposed to individual scheduling and 1 hour here and another hour there kinda stuff.
Any comments are of course welcome. Thanks and see ya tonight in the TA.
Dave

nomak, i would like a traing session any nite after 7pm est. thanks.game id brickhd

Hey Lazer, gud fun....... altho I could not get the hang of trying to keep speed in that FW190, and get any kind of shot on you, xceptin a Ho or gang...
maybe a critique on my flying attempts please. BTW, great reversals, i thought I was "blowing" through, and every time I looked, there was ur 38, lining up on me arse at 400 or so.!!
Fun,

LOL, Yucca, just hop into TA, theres always people trying to help you. If you cant make it, shoot me a PM, well set a time and ill get you going.
PS: Maybe you shouldnt try a heavy loaded P47 bomber for starters. A good beginners plane is the P40B.
-
Good beginners plane is a spitfire or a hurricane i hear :)
-
I agree. Especially the Hurri Mk1. Extremly easy mode and downright dweebish...I probably fly it like a girl as well.
Hopeless case.
-
"...and I probably fly the Hurri I like a girl.."
DOH :confused: Schatzi, you fly em like an ANIMAL!!!

Mig next time I see you online we can go to DA, film a few fights, and you'll see some things that may help a bit.
-
Just FYI -- for those reading this thread or otherwise interested.
I'd contacted Nomak about tryign to set up some training, and he jsut let me know that he has left AH and gone to Falcon 4, without any plans to return to AH in the future. Out of respect for his privacy, i left it at that --but I wanted to let other potential trainees know.
(PS and this is NOT the FOAT)
-
Thats too bad,
He has been a big asset to the community. I was going to ask him for some training myself. (I really need it)
