Happy to be here. I hope everyone is doing well! I am looking to learn how to fly combat planes. I've been flying MSFS for close to 20 years now, but for some reason or another never got around to combat flying. I have Trackir and have replaced my yoke and radio stack with a TM Warthog setup ready to learn on. I'm realistic about my skill level and know I pretty much have everything to learn about fighters. I really want to get good enough to fly missions as good as the real guys. But right now I pretty much have only mastered the ejection handle... Hopefully this is a place I can find a gifted instructor that has the time and patience to walk me through what it takes to be an asset to your SQ.
I'm former Navy so I understand things like chain of command and radio brevity in missions. I am an CAM programmer so I'm pretty focused and efficient at understanding cause and effect of actions. I'm laid back and fun but I do take my flying seriously. I was active in a VR airline for several years. I'm also newly single so I'll have all the time I want to dedicate myself to learning to be a fighter pilot.
In closing I promise I'll stay far enough off your wing that I won't collide with you when I screw-up I'm looking forward to meeting and getting to know ya'll. If you have any advice or time to help me learn please feel free to contact me.

Best regards,
Robert

P.S sorry about where I placed this post I thought I was in the GP section. Please move to correct place.

Hi, Robert!

It is not quite so obvious on our front page as it used to be, but it is there. In any case, here is the TS;

TS.F99TH.COM:1131

In the evenings, especially, there will almost certainly be someone to talk about the things you want to regarding DCS, and probably others wanting to listen to what you have to say about anything else mentioned in your post. You may or may not have found your new home .

And take no notice if Kocrachon kicks you; he's like that! LOL!

Welcome! Yeah we've got lots of people that can show you the ropes. You definitely made it to the right spot.

You'll get your wingman/instructor when you get to the TS...

And if you don't, gimme a call. I'll fly it with ya.
