This is the first online flight sim that I have tried and I tell you it is a lot of fun.  I have spent a few hours offline trying to learn some rudimentary ACM and learning how to take off and land.  Only flying online twice I have managed to get a few kills but am meat for the majority of you.  No matter how I try to keep my altitude and E up I am usually wallowing low and slow and getting waxed.  There are some great flyers in the arena.  I would like to join a squad to learn more but being limited in time (kids,work,etc.) I don't have many opportunites to get online.  Any rookies looking for a wing let me know when you fly and we can try to stay alive.

Milo, you're welcome to be bait, er, ah, wing with us anytime!  Look at ROSTER when you get online, and check the squad name for "JG2 Richthofen" and give a shout on the private channel, we usually fly Knights. We primarily fly LW aircraft, but occasionally you'll see us up in most everything except the Uber 51.(okay, okay, they toned it down just a smidge)  Good luck and welcome to the community!

Ygsmilo,

I second Ripsnort's suggestion.  I also fly for JG2.  Great Squad.  Check to see who is on from JG2 and give us a holler. We'll fly with ya.

Good Luck!!!
