Angels and Airspeed - Wingman PDF
 

A small PDF on the role of the wingman.

There just aren't too many good wingmen out there these days. It seems everyone wants to be the "lead" and not the "wing". Regardless, there are some who do a superior job at flying good wing and my own absentee-wingman is/was one of the best. =TgD=Lunix

-=FA=-RaVen is probably one of the best I've ever had as well. We flew an international match together one time and he was my wingman. I had a few successful engagements and was all over the sky. I recorded the ntrk and when watching it afterwards, I couldn't find a single sequence he wasn't stuck to me like glue...for over 2 hours solid! That's such a rarity and is hard to appreciate until you've had it.

Basic wingman tactics are akin to reading up on the communications Brevity code ( http://simhq.com/_air/air_008a.html )...always a good idea.

One can never prescribe a wingman as air combat is so fluid and volatile, but maybe you're looking for this type of Hero (26MB) ..
Excuse the poor quality.. this was made a longgggg time ago on a Co-Op map vs the AI
:cool:

Great stuff, thanks!!!!

No prob.. :)

TBH I prefer being a wingman, but...there are not many good leaders around lol

Flying online as a pair with someone else who knows what they are doing is awesome - but it's REALLY hard to find someone who is willing or able to do it, even harder to find someone who is disciplined enough to stick with it.

I fly on spits v 109s and zekes vs wildcats as [Angels]Bard if anyone is looking to pair up sometime.

I finally had the time to dig a bit through it.

Very nice work again and well put together!

Thanks.

Just posted the Lead Element PDF.
