Mission to test your TWS skills

[snomhf]

Thank you for the invite Capt Rob!

 

I've got quite a bit more exploring with this game before I want to do the OL thing. I'm sure I'll get the bug again and when I do I will certainly look you up.

 

Yes, I am running FC 1.12a.

 

Thanks for your thoughts on TIR. That's my next purchase.

 

S!

Glad I could help you get started :)

 

All I can say is WOW!! You've come along way in a short time.. well done.

 

I can see your flying skills are quite high and you have defiantly grasped the idea of maintaining your SA and lock on the targets while pulling some pretty extreme maneuvers... Now the fun really begins as you become an even better decision maker in the virtual cockpit as your skill increases.

 

As for the barrel role evasion technique; well I have heard of people that use it but I have no idea how successful it really is so IMO that's something to keep an eye on and make sure you build up your "missile evasion portfolio" so you can choose another defensive tactic if you feel a particular situation calls for it.

 

One tip or suggestion.. I don't use the barrel roll technique but I noticed that you were almost stalling at one point.. not that you would have pushed the Eagle for a full departure but going that slow while a missile is coming at you doesn't seem like a good idea too me ;).... You could find yourself not having the air speed to get yourself out of trouble if your bandit fails to go defensive and gets another shot off... Especially if you get within IR missile range.
