CBStu Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 One thing I have figured out is don't forget to have some fun. The difficulty of the various missions and qualifications varies from 'I blew 4 Migs out of the sky in 20 seconds' to 'someday I hope I can get through this and still be flying at the end'. So, when I get frustrated in Bankler's or one of the more difficult missions, I always switch to an easier one before I shut down the PC. I like L Shift +R to do a quick restart and run the fun one 3-4 times.

Notso Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Tip: always practice landings. In most missions you are going to train, your plane will already start in the sky. Look for the nearest airport and land, especially before you start flying online. It is every horrible thing that we see. People demand the most perfect simulator in the world but cannot find the patience to taxi their planes to the runway or land their planes. As the colleague said before, train a lot. Use and abuse your mission editor. Create several missions, one for each thing you want to learn, even if it is to go around and discover the limits of your fighter. But after all that, land. Yep, spot on. System HW: i9-9900K @5ghz, MSI 11GB RTX-2080-Ti Trio, G-Skill 32GB RAM, Reverb HMD, Steam VR, TM Warthog Hotas Stick & Throttle, TM F/A-18 Stick grip add-on, TM TFRP pedals.

Raisuli Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 ...and after enough practice I hit a 3 wire on the centerline. At 810 FPS. Still plenty of work to do. Actually got several centerlines tonight, but I still tend to be low. Need better descent control.

BuzzU Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 I think learning has a lot to do with how good your memory is. As you get older it gets worse. Someone young or anybody with a good memory can just read something and do it from there on in. Old goats like me have to read it then do it over and over until it sinks in. Then if I don't keep doing it on a regular basis i'll forget it and have to start over again. It's why you don't see any old real fighter pilots. Buzz
