but as i read in another thread, it seems players are scarce and if i get an invite and i'm not in a game i'll usually join...

i accepted one a while ago and it turned out to be a realistic game and oh my what a difference. i had never played real online before. needless to say i had my ass handed to me and have ever since... my hands are full and i can't hold anymore!!! LOL

anyway... i don't mind realistic and have got to the point where i can land the Hurricane quite readily in CTA... but i just can't get a handle on flying... STALL STALL STALL... WTF... even pulling a semi tight turn @ 90 percent throttle.... STALL.... Spin... burn...

i have quite a bit of fun trying though

after all that... here's my point... i tell the guys in the lobby that i am totally a rookie pilot in real and i just get shredded by these guys. i'm not complaining about getting killed but i am complaining that there are other folks in the game who would be more of a challenge to shoot down than me.

i know it happens in all modes of the game and have seen it in arcade countless times... but come on... i know when i see a rookie i don't continue to pound on him and i even will let him get some kills to help his ego and keep him playing...

there... i feel better having said that

PS
Dont forget to play with different ailrons and elevator settings.........
This makes a huge differnce in realistic and especially sim.
