Once again all our your opinions are much appreciated, especially those of you with recent WB experience. I'd definitely seek out help from the AH training staff, from reading the boards I already have a few in mind. Some of your training videos posted are excellent.
The time and thought that goes into a WB S3 frame is amazing. The targets and timing is laid out by the officers coordinating the frame all week. At the squad level, we usually get our objectives by Friday. This set of 5 frames (5 weeks) is mid WWII, with massive formations of heavy buffs (B17/B24's) taking off from British airfields and rendezvousing at waypoints out over the channel, then heads for targets in France. My squad flies high alt long range sweeps in P38J's with drop tanks (no L's yet) ahead of the bombers to clear out perched 190's/109's, and drive them down. All done with almost no radar help, realistic clouds, and limited short range icons. It's a pretty tense 3 hour frame, we communicate on Teamspeak, (free with WB's). The Axis fliers put in an equal amount of planning and effort to try and stop the bombers - very "12 O'clock High" like at times when it all comes together. We then escort the buffs out of Indian territory where they are picked up by units who were on V1 intercept duty for the ride back to base in 'ol England.
I'm just looking to be a better pilot, and it sounds like there's lots of experience to be gained in both games. Again, your thoughts and viewpoints are greatly appreciated, I should be active in AH soon.
