So...the beginner class is expected to be an hour and a half? In Falcon, 30 minutes would be spent on connection issues alone, given the volume of people (15). And that's assuming they all have their sticks and TeamSpeak configured properly.

Could someone record it via TeamSpeak's recorder? How about a good FRAPs recording?

Thank you, Guod, for the explanation. Please change my request from the intermediate class to the beginner's class. Sorry about the extra admin.

Sign me up for the beginner's class. Even though I've blown stuff up, I did it with the "cheats" on like unlimited ammo and invulnerability. I still can't land without crashing. And what's the difference between cyclic and collective? smile

By the way, can I sit through the Beginner class and stay for the Intermediate?
