Looks like you boys are trainable after all. Who'da believed it? :lol: Glad you asked about this, Snaph. Those were great questions, & I'm sure you're not the only one who'll benefit from this thread. That "mutual benefit" thing may be the best thing about asking questions in the first...

Neil,
Sorry to hear about that less-than-ideal week. Best wishes for a speedy, complete recovery.... and be sure to "milk" this for all it's worth & let yourself enjoy some good old-fashioned pampering.

Tac, please change your post back to its original, unedited form... in keeping with the squadron's current trend of opinion regarding personal stats in particular... but more so for the entertainment value afforded to all readers in general. Furthermore, consider a frequent sprinkling of additional ...

Er, make that.... sometime in the reasonably near future! (Still paying for spending 2 nights flying last week... but I'll get there in time.)

Yeah, Murph. Usually, altitudes are held ~ constant throughout the maneuvers Falcon has diagramed so far, i.e. whoever was high before the maneuver is still the high guy after it. Both horizontal spacing & altitude stack can vary quite a bit. Things like view from the cockpit of each plane, the ...

Yeah, I discovered that emoticon thing by accident! Funny ain't it?

I've got some editing to do on my notes before I send 'em... but since I also have In Puruit downloaded, I'll send that to you also, Airhawk. Could be later this weekend though.

I've got your email off the forums here, Airhawk. I'll send you what I was talking about. It's just some notes I put together before our last couple of nights of training sessions. Falcon is also working up some great-looking diagrams that'll help even more, which we'll eventually get to you one way...

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we all spend some time lost online, Airhawk. I sure do. I blame it on the simulated terrain - just looks "all the same" everywhere to me (makes a good excuse anyway!). It's usually much easier to recognize landmarks from the air in real life. Also, even if you knew wh...

Hey, this thread seems to fall under the "Pilot School" sticky. Should we move it there? Here's what I see so far: Tuesday, 8PM: TacticalS, Noter, McBiggles & Falcon available. MOH_Soda may listen in. No other responses. Wednesday, 8PM: Noter, McBiggles & Falcon available. MOH_Soda...

Sounds pretty good to me. 4 at a time is a great size for this, and will help us keep it to only ~30-45 minutes per session... if I do a touch of planning in advance. I hope you're all ready for a fully-regimented training ciriculum, complete with textbooks, exams, & syllabus! :shock: :lol: OK m...

Hi guys, sorry... busy day today. You people are funny. Sure I'll try to shower my vast knowledge upon you ( :roll: ), but unfortunately timing is the issue for this weekend - I'm heading out of town. Next week's a possibility, though. Sounds like you may be gone next Friday, Tac. We could either do...

I've been slowly reading "In Pursuit" and I'm about finished. I definitely agree with Gadje about how well-written it is. Some sections rivaled training material we had in the USAF. I learned quite a bit in terms of the online flying world, since I've never spent much time there for 3 reas...

Thanks for that, Jack, but maybe my post was confusing. It's the AFW Teamspeak server I'm talking about - not the FI's, which works for me with no probs. So, if you ARE speaking of the AFW server address, I'm really confused. Did you notice below the TS image the new server address? I've been ALL ov...

Hi Gents, I "joined up" with our squad on the Air Force War home page & read thru most of the manual, etc. Got the general idea, but still some unanswered questions about how mission & task assignments are designated... all stuff I'll eventually figure out by playing, probably. Mea...

I checked all the links I could find, both here and at the SimHQ forums, and they all seem to have expired. If anybody still has the latest version of the switcher download, kindly PM me. Finally trying to get all the techie stuff done! Vielen Dank, Blue2 ------------------------------ Well I'm eith...
