Title: First flight tonight. Thnx Bishops.
Post by: twopots on March 17, 2011, 07:55:18 AM

First of all, sorry that I wasn't answering radio calls tonight over 44. Typed as well as voice.
Two reasons.
Hadn't worked out the radio yet and finding that trimming the plane is a handful, particularly when you're in the Control section trying to map functions on the fly  :headscratch: &
Haven't got a mic set yet. Dropping by EB tomorrow.

Other than that, my 1/2 an hour in the air was truly an experience and I look forward to becoming a grizzled old timer.

G'nite all,

Welcome to the addiction hahaha! Just a couple things to remember. First dont take the game to seriously, in other words try not to take anything personal. There is alot of armchair generals and internet tough guys that will try to pick an argument with anybody. If i peeve somebody off by shooting them down or whatever, to me it means im doing something right  :D! Next, Try not to make Head On(HO) passes. Lastly ignore all the ALT-F4 jokes! 

Enjoy the game and HAVE FUN!  :salute

If you want help with anything, remember the best places in Aces High for
new players are the training arena (TA) and the Help and Support forums.

G'nite all,

Nope don't get old and grizzled. Always stay new! Welcome aboard. It's you new folks that keep the game fresh.

Welcome aboard!!
NO worries on mic, IMO. I had one, it stopped working for some damn reason, but I am not replacing it until the headphones go.  :joystick:
check6 key works good, as does typing. Keep conversations on local (purple) and it works nice. It is really funny how many people feel others should not have public conversations on green. meh. type is type.
If you need to know the fastest way to the ground, look me up. Or down, actually. I get over 5k and I start to shake. Creepy up there.  :noid
