Flight Training with ATAG_Keller

[EKat]

Request training in the Ju-88 with Keller. I'm requesting a level I session, but I'm not really a newbie. My main concern being transition to full real flying. I haven't flown CLoD online since it first came out having taken a three year time-out in online flying. So, my cockpit familiarization is still fairly low. But, I'm getting back into online with a newly built rig and now have a patched CLoD with TF 4.0. My keys are fairly well-mapped, although that is still a work in progress. I've downloaded the '88 guide and have been practicing my take-offs and landings with full real settings and can just now take off and land the '88 with a bomb load-out 'empty' and 100% fuel without blowing-up an engine, LOL! I need more engine management practice under greater loads, course setting with auto-pilot, gyro setting and I am a bit rusty with the Lofte bombsight, but used it quite a lot in the old IL-2.

I'm available starting this Sunday, March 9.

Best Regards,
EKat

I'd be glad to help you out EKat, but you should know that I'm good in the 88 up to the point where you get into the Lotfe Bombsight. I do all my level bombing with the He-111 H-2; I've never level bombed with the 88 before.

Well, I'm certainly a big fan of the He-111. Just didn't see a guide out there for it, so been practicing the Ju-88 instead. We could easily switch this to the He-111.

I don't mind showing you everything I know about the 88 and the 111, I'd be more comfortable teaching you the Lotfe 7 in the 111 though.

I should be around on Sunday and Monday.

OK, I checked out the links.

Sunday sounds good. Any particular time good for you? I'm on east coast USA. Meet in a TS server?

[III./ZG76_Keller]

I'll have a better idea as Sunday draws closer; but yes, look for me on TS.
