Played my first SIM game Sunday night!

Quite accidently. I was looking for any game and this one popped up. It was a dogfight. I had ideas on what to do thanks to you guys on this forum. I chose the I-16 because I thought it would be easiest to fly my first time. I didn't want to worry too much about actually flying it so I could search for the other planes unhindered. It didn't quite pan out that way! I stalled the engine within 30 seconds. It wouldn't restart. Crashed (3 times). I thought I was WEPPING too much (arcade habit) and burning up the engine. Not so. It must be too many G's on the gravity fed carbs. Yep. I reduced sensitivity and got it under control. Couldn't see much from the cockpit but it kept me oriented. The virtual view did not. I need more practise with it. Like you guys said, the fighting was really low. I found them but had a real difficult time manuvering my plane with the others. One was a Spit MkIX the other a 109G-6. I managed once to get on the tail of the 109 and got some deflection shots off with no effect (I obviously missed). Got killed 3 times, 6 with the crashes. I need a stick. I'm waiting for the update cuz of the problems the sticks have. I noted rudder input will sling the plane around badly (arcade habit). I was happy to keep the plane flying, find the opponents, and at least keep up with them. Not bad for the first time out. I'll try a 109 next time because of fuel injection.
