NEW PILOT on the PS3

[kjwright]

Just got my first kill. Was pure luck I suppose. Had just bought the new add on for the P-47( Wish they had the P-38 too) and thought id give it a shot. Handled nice shot down another P-47 then got raped by the spitfire mkIX those cannons. I did manage on my first game though to present my wing man a nice oppurtunity. Was getting hounded by two 109-G's and did a maneuver my dad told me. just simply pull nose straight up and climb and let plane fall into a stall. My wingman was able to blow both out of the sky.

Welcome to the skies of BoP!
As Dave says there's a healthy group of dedicated flyers who (from a European standpoint) are on most evenings. Great bunch of guys who will help you ( or just as easily kill you) if you ask. Best advice- stick with it. You're going to get chewed up and spat out for your first few games but persistance will pay dividends and you'll be soon tearing wings off and flaming planes like the best of them. Get to know the guys who frequent the forum and who also fly and you're not going to go wrong when it comes to having 'backup' when it's needed!
Most important of all- enjoy it! It is after all just a game!!

If you have prob's with stall's and you're flying with full sensitivity read up that mustang purist club thread. There's the instruction for setting custom control's. There is a little bug with standar and aviator settings. You can read more about that in that mustang topic too.

Welcome!
