    Default Interest for Mossie/ESF Basic Training?

    After being around a bit (I'm still new member) it seems like we don't have much of a flying skillbase, so I was wondering if people would be interested in a basic ESF training.

    I've been flying for about a year on an old character, and could run a training from an old reddit thread.

    We used to do periodic training for flying, but the member who did those went and joined HONK. If you are willing to help train our guys on ESF stuff, I'd be more than happy to put up announcements etc to get you some attendees.

    What would a good time be? It would need to be 2 one-hour sessions. (It could be all at once.)

    Edit - I could do Saturday afternoon.

    After talking to Kestah I'm going do 2 ~1hr esf trainings before ops in a week:
    Basic Mossie 1 - 6:30PM EST (server time) Sun 21st
    Basic Mossie 2 - 6:30PM EST (server time) Mon 22nd

    It's too much information to do in a single session (yawn 2 hours of me talking) so I'll break it up. I's meant to be a training from no previous knowledge or skill of flying. There won't be signups but for Basic 2 I *might* limit it to 1st come 1st server if we get massive turnout.

    Basic 1 will be an overview of keybindings/controls, flying, hovermode, up to doing a Reverse Maneuver from a stop.

    Basic 2 will cover turning to engage enemies behind with a Reverse Maneuver, circling targets, *simple* hoverdueling, and an explanation of cert-effective loadouts for new pilots.

    (luckily someone already wrote it for me)

    Good things. I'll be there for sure.

    I trust this will be in VRTraining?

    I'll try to be there for Basic 2. I already know how to fly from my time in RACO, but I still can't fly in combat that well

    I have practiced enough with the Galaxy to not present an automatic death sentence to squads assigned to my untender mercilessness, but I've yet to get end a journey inside a Mossy with anything but a fiery explosive death. I'm going to set a calendar reminder and try to be there for at least the first session. Thanks for the Opportunity. >:)

    I am absolutely awful at flying in this game out side of the galaxy. I will do my best to attend.

    I can fly well, I understand how to fly really well in my opinion for a beginner. But I am garbage at dogfighting, I don't know what I need to put on to my ESF, or even how to put them to use effectively. When would the training be held?
