No.401 Squadron Scramble Night #2

[badfinger]

I had my first taste of multi-player, last Saturday (thanks Osprey) and last night with No. 401. I got there early, and flew around listening to the other guys. Never did see anyone, but still it was a good introduction.

I do have a couple of comments, though. On my first two take-offs, the plane wasn't acting at all as I expected, and I nosed over into the runway both times. I've never done that before. After my third take-off and I was flying around, the plane responded more normally. Is this the result of the connection speed? Second, I will need to really study the map, in order to find my way around, in the future. Flying early evening, with the sun going down, the rivers and lakes stood out very well, but I couldn't use them to find myself on the map. I guess I'm used to maps (sectionals) in RL flying that show more detail, and allow you to really narrow down where you are. Also, Ive never done any RL flying in England or France.

Just as the mission started, my cable went out for about an hour, so I missed the majority of the activities. But, I'll be back.
