I would so love to do that but that works out to be 0730 Monday my time and I will be on the way to work. Do these clinics have any Aussie friendly equivalents? Also is it possible that trainers can quote times in GMT or zulu so us non US folk can more easily work out what it what please. ET means call home to most of us :)

We'll work something out Baxter. We could set up some 1 on 1 training on a weekend.

I'll be there.
Been playing since the week this game came out and I have never really gotten into it, but as of late I've been a lone defender (in the air) against enemy GVs and I need to become more versatileeeeeeee

If Amazon gets my hardware to me tomorrow as planned and setting it up goes smoothly, I might be able to attend.  :pray

I'd also like to give thanks for the clinic! I was consistently able to destroy bomber hangers in one pass at the end of the class with the P51D, 2 x 1000lbs and 6 rockets.

Practice, practice and more practice. I took 40 to 50 sorties today getting that sight picture together and that was for just one altitude, dive angle and speed. I found a little cheat from all the practice was that the outer circle of my gunsight was where I needed to place on the target for my most consistant runs.

Thanks again FLS for a great clinic,

It was super helpful to me, I can say for certain that I'm a 100 percent better dive bomber than I ever was before.   I can pick out and hit my target consistently now.  Thanks FLS!

Grr  :furious

Now I'm really upset that I missed it. If somebody doesn't mind passing along what they learned sometime that'd be great.
