Hey guys!
Total noob here. I can only second VCENTS thoughts! Plenty of time watching DCS on youtube and now finally getting involved. Have just been doing all the training missions in the SU25T for about a month, couple of hours most nights. Flew a little bit in multiplayer in the Freeflight / training server. My MO is to generally wander the skies, find a ground target, spend an hour or two trying to blow it up and then eventually crashing! Cant get enough of it though!
