I'll probably get the Ka-50 and Huey and A-10, just a few questions is the Ka-50 fully clickable like the P-51 and is it the same with the Huey and A-10 thanks mate.

Yeah they'll all study sims so yes, they are. The Huey is your best bet. It's the most fun out of all of them. The A10 is far too complicated for my small brain.

The A-10C freakin rocks. cool.gif You'll never regret getting that aircraft its so simple to fly and use weapons you can get it up and flying around dropping bombs in a very short period of time. The KA50 is a beast to learn it is quite complex but still easy to fly since its FBW and has autopilot/hover. Weapons take a little reading to use them since there is a few switches to turn on to get it going and ramp starts do take a bit of study to master.(it has buttons everywhere even behind you!) For Blackshark2 get the download version unless you already have BS1 in which case get the upgrade. Heres a link for the download version:

A-10C has a lot of technical stuff you can learn as well and the gun is quite good for straffing.

Yes and you need the full version so get the download version otherwise if you get the upgrade then you will need to get Black Shark 1 as well.

Learning the A-10C is no different now but using the A-10C effectively is easier since you have better graphics so spotting the tgts and shooting them with the gun/missiles/rockets is easier than previous sims because of the detail. Also the targeting pod is awesome to use and once you get the hang of it they are really fun to use. If you decide to take things further there are missions which educate you on the more technical stuff. IMO you could be up killing tgts within 5minutes flying with a little tuition. The handy stuff like ramp start cheat key is handy in mp for people who are still learning and now in the ME I can also set aircraft on the ramp with engines already started. plane.gif
