Nugget Posted June 6, 2012 Posted June 6, 2012 Several years ago a guy created the Falcon Training School (FTS) to help people learn the complexities of Falcon 4. The purpose of the FTS was to teach people the fundamentals; not just how to blow things up. Several hundred people, many belonging to squadrons, took the course and learned about the systems, switches, navigation, communication, symbology, weapons, etc. The course lasted several months and the pilots flew with the instructor 2-3 times a week. Most commented that this ongoing, one-on-one training was far superior to anything available in their squadrons and definitely preferable to trying to work their way through the manual. I understand the A-10C community doesn't have a comparable training program and I have enough experience with squadrons to know they don't have the time or interest in providing this type of training. Therefore, I'm looking for someone, willing to volunteer their time and knowledge, to help me learn this sim using the basic methodology of the FTS. Anyone interested in helping a fellow pilot may contact me directly at: marray@nexicom.net

TGTM99 Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 Hi 112th Rossi ..... being a totally (older!) newbie, I would dearly love some help. We are in the same timezone as I am in Hillsborough, N. Ireland. I have managed to get as far as manual startup, i.e. electrical startup, APU and engine startup but that's it so far. Am trying to get to grips with MFDs etc at present. Any help or advice would be gratefully appreciated. Kindest regards.

WildBillKelsoe Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) Trust me, it has a very shallow learning curve.. If you have ipad / pdf reader, load the manual on to it, and as you fly, you will learn about the different systems on-board. For a list of squadrons, check here: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=34062 Edited June 7, 2012 by WildBillKelsoe AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
Pikey Posted June 7, 2012 Posted June 7, 2012 take a system at a time and be prepared to read. You can take off and fly and land in one piece first time but its the systems and weapon delivery that requires practice. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING *
