And thank you farewell tanker :
I used to fly this years ago and refueling was by far the hardest thing in game to do. And the learning curve to operate the weapons systems is huge, if your not commited to spend hours on end learning all the systems and sub sytems dont bother. BUt when you learn everything its a blast online with humans as your wingmen.

Dude, I work with F-16's so there's my commitment and learning the stuff is very rewarding! It's going to be weeks until we learn all the systems and all the different subsystems and modes (although it helps in heaps seeing that I can read the manuals at work), then how to use proper tactics before we can finally start pulling off some realistic missions with good results! At the moment we have a mission we test-run with a few ships, a few ground targets and a few aerial targets + AWACS and a tanker so we can just mess around and do whatever we like. Config is multirole 4x Gbu12 2x AIM-2000 (iris-T) and 2x AIM-120B AMRAAMs + the Advanced Targeting Pod The training possibilities are endless
