Thank you so much for this! This is definately something I can learn from. There is one term that was not defined that I hear all the time and was in the lesson: snapshot. I'm not sure what that is.

Thanks again for the help,

that will be covered in another lesson, but, there are 2 types of shots, tracking, and snapshot. A tracking shot is when you "saddle up" and are able to track your enemy with your gunsight. A snapshot is taken as they cross your plane of motion, generally only a split second of time to fire.

I will cover this more in depth later.

I also would advise signing up for some DA training time with me, since reading abt it, and doing it, are 2 different things

Snapshots are easier to do if your in a cannon bird, thats one reason alot of people fly K4s because 1 30mm on a snapshot the plane is dead, but 50s can snap shot to but might need acouple passes on them alot of the time you will injure the plane when you do hit so take the shot if you think you got it:salute:

I read through and will read it again and again Sol. I may have questions soon, but lesson 1 is mostly refresher stuff for me. Thank you for doing this Bro!

Sol,

Let me know If I need to save it in a different format for other folks to open and I will do so. Ain't it nice to have a buddy in the print industry?:D

Hey Sol,

I have thought about this a bit, and I want to be the first to graduate with the Pigs Top Gun designation. I want to work out a training schedule with you to do all required training flights. I will call or PM you Sir.

Talk at ya later,

Way

What ever happened with this? I'm still interested in attending the classes although I think I need to schedule special sessions for evenings if possible. Just wondering if it's progressing with others or not?
