Hello community,
I have about 20hours of flight time (bf109e-4, hurricane but lately the spit1a). I am having difficulties to find a fight and when i did find a fight I was an easy target. However I did manage to shoot a few 109's down and yes it was a nice feeling :) Anyway, I decided to try Teamspeak. First I just listened bc I didn't know what was going on (English point, French point, on the deck, feet dry, ...) but searched on the forums and now I kinda know what they are talking about. So yesterday evening I decided to give it a go. I was flying with my spit above the ships when a fellow spit started to talk to me and asked me to join up. I told him that I am a "noob" but he didn't mind and said that everybody has to learn. So I followed him and he directed me into a fight and helped me out. I did got shot down but I didn't mind :) They referred to me as "the new guy" and it had the feeling that i was part of the action/community :) I rejoined the action, got a few hits but took some as well. I had to escape on the deck bc of a water leak but managed to give my position and some guys came in to help me out. Brake left, brake right ,... It was such an epic moment, (sweathing, heart pounding, ...)They shot down the bf109 and I did manage to 'crash land' instead of being shot down.
I want to thank the community for helping me out and I am planning to fly more with you guys. Everybody was friendly and helpfull. However I can't tell who helped me out. Do you guys use a TS overlay? I found something on the atag forum about it so I might give it a try. I have the feeling that everybody knows eachother for a long time so I am a little bit restrained to speak on TS :) Also thinking about changing my nickname bc "jakke" is a belgian name and difficult to pronounce :)
Cya soon in the skies.
