Postman,

First off I'm no expert with the 39's, so if it's more advanced help you need with those aircraft, I'm probably not the right guy.  If it's BFM in general then I can help you out there,  They have the same basic weaknesses of most of the American aircraft.  The light bomber question, what are you looking for there?  If it's how to dogfight an A20, I can help you there, that's fun :lol.

Well just ground attack with the light bombers, and basically learn how to dogfight... cause well I really suck at it. I think I've shot down maybe 2 people(which ended up with them colliding with me) and been shot down more times then I can count, pretty much any help will do for me. Although it probably doesnt help when I try and dogfight cause all I have is an old Sidewinder 2 joystick to work with.

 I am in the TA now and again, you can look for me there or in the MA Late War. will go over with you BFM and BOMBING tactics if you need. There is a few tricks to the trade. If you are new in here, don't expect success for a while till you get some hours in. The first month I didn't even have to land. LOL

Cajun, I'll be on sporadically all day today(Friday 12/9) and Saturday If you want to setup a time we could go to the training arena.

Nathan- Yeah, I was like :eek: when I saw you guys, and was figuring on either bailing or just get shot down like always. But the sad story is that my sidewinder has seen better days, I have a set of pedals from a steering wheel that i might hook up and see if using the rudder on them would be better then trying to my my wrist a contortionist which might help me a lot since i don't normally use the rudder and can't even do a split S cause of how far i have to turn my wrist.

Postman, I'd be happy to meet up with ya in the TA for some ACM practice.  I'm usually online 8pm to 11pm CST.  Also, any time you log in, take a peek in the Training Arena.  You'll often find a trainer in there hanging around waiting for someone to work with.  Just make sure to ask if they're free at the moment and any of us will gladly help out.

 Postman,

  As I told you look up Silat or delirium both are great P38 trainers and if you seach through this forum you might find links to one of Del's clinics that have been filmed.

    I'm usually in the TA during the evenings around 9pm est. except fridays when I'm warming up for FSO.  Sorry I couldnt help more lastnight.
