Title: P38 Basic (Class 1) Clinic this weekend, Aug1st 9:00pm est
Post by: Delirium on July 29, 2009, 12:56:38 AM
I'm holding a basic P38 clinic this weekend, August 1st, at 9:00pm-10:30pm est. There will be some SAPP volunteers assisting at the event, all are welcome!

This class is designed for beginners to learn the P38 who already have experience in other aircraft and wish to transition to the 38, or those looking to learn the 38's weakness.

This clinic will cover the fuel loadouts, convergence, the basic Immelman merge, use of flaps, compression, side slipping, snaprolling and trim.

I would have loved to attend but I'll be working that night. Any way someone could get the film to me? I'd greatly appreciate it.  :pray

I will film it but I will keep much of the session in text, voice will be mostly used to answer questions.

Yes, it will be in the Training Arena.

The field will depend on how many people show up and I know at least once we'll be moving to a 30k field. I'll make sure the information is broadcasted...

I would love to be in the training as I love the p38 but cant seem to fly it very well. I have to work that night though so if it is filmed I would like to get a copy as well. Hopefully I can catch up and make the future p38 training sessions.  :salute

I'm very sorry Del, I was moving furniture all day to help my sister after being awake for over 24hrs, went to sleep, woke up an hour before the scenario and logged on.  Scenario finished and I logged off, logged on later and flew with soul/cactus.  Completely forgot :(  beating myself up now

I think I was first to auger, did some cross control stuff, was doin good, but wanted brake real hard, snap rolled and augered. since I was having some connection issues I relogged, and came back just as the chapter on snap rolls (and how to control them) started.  :rolleyes: impeccable timing as usual  :t . fun stuff

I'll ask around, I had recorded the session but at the end I hit "cancel" on the recording before I even realized what I was doing.  :(

Obviously Soulyss is a better pilot than filmographer. Cecil B. DeMille's memory is safe.

It's a habit some of us need to break.  :uhoh

I hate getting through a good sortie will the full intention of saving the film only to instinctively hit cancel.  :furious

If no-one has a film of the session I think I remember most of what Del covered.  If anyone is interested catch me online and I'd be happy to hop from the MA's over the TA and bring them up to speed.

If I am remembering right he covered
Fuel settings
convergence
Combat trim combat vs manual
Side slipping
Dive recovery
Snap rolls

Naturally, do you still require your recruits to be able to field strip the standard Mk IV blender in under one minute?
