So yeah doing the campaign, did two missions both 100% complete. Now just have to bring my kills per mission up. I'm not getting a lot. But finally fixed TrackIR so I could use the F10 key in game and can call in SEAD and CAP so AAA and SAMs don't blow me out of the sky.

Also my landings are now equal to my ejections (I know terrible right?) Did get a little cocky my second mission was trying to gun kill a tank and he took out my left MFCD and my ILS.

Congrats, sounds like fun and good progress!

Thats awsome...I wish I was at that point.

I been trying to figure out this game for about a month I think so yeah I can vouch for it being a long journey. the way I seen it the training missions were great to teach you almost everything and then the manual filled in the gaps.

Isnt it a great feeling to get that first mission in the bag?

definitely. You feel like you almost know what you are doing

The key is to complete your mission and come home safe and sound. Any extra kills are just that - extra.
