Online BMS Training?
-
We’re a small group of 4-5 BMS virtual Viper drivers down here in NZ and if anyone in AU/NZ wants to fly with us on our private server, we’ll happily do so regardless of skill level or experience. We don’t really do PVP, we exclusively fly campaigns together (with difficulty level cranked up) and just enjoy pulling off a decent combat mission. Most flying is around 08:30 PM NZDT depending on real life commitments.
We’re definitely not Weapons School graduates ourselves (to put it mildly) but we don’t get our knickers in a twist if someone does something wrong or isn’t using the right jargon or anything and we’re more than happy to explain things to you while doing it.

BMS is easy. What’s to train?

Default vTLP 18-2 course is open.
From the vtlp staff, we are happy to announce that the new 18-2 course is open for registration. If you want to participate as a student (Blue team) or aggressor (Red team), you can write here or contact me. I´ll send you a little document with all avaliable info ATM.What is vTLP?
Virtual Tactical Leadership Program is, same as a real one, a program for advanced training for pilots with the aim of improving the operation and effectivenes of BMS virtual squadrons. It is not about any type of competition. vTLP base the training courses on collaboration, friendship and team effort. There are no winners or loosers, only a great experiences to future flights and collaborations in addition to the satisaction of a well done job. Our Staff if formed by virtual pilots with many experience years as well as a real pilots who have participated in real TLP. They offer us support on the operations we are carried out during the program to be very close and similar than real one.
Squadron requirements:
To take part in the course as a blue team, the invited squadron must provide the red team with at least two pilots. This means that if we have a blue slot, the squadron will need a minimum of 4 pilots (Student + wingman in the blue team and 2 red pilots). In case of having enough pilots, they can fly in the red team according to the necessary disposition in each mission. The final decision will bemade by the red coordinator in this case. If the minimum number of pilots required is not available to participate as student, the squadron may fly as red team according to the necessary disposition in each mission. The final decision will be made in this case by the red_

Not sure i understand your answer to drakko but i have to intervene.
I participate regularly in VTLP´s since 2008 back in AF.
There is no better graduate course to learn. All levels of experience are present. and we all learn a lot in just a couple of weeks.What you are looking for is exactly this type of online activity.
PS - My friend Drakko , since we postponed the last VTLP due to 4.34 release and since very very soon POH will be release with U1 standards when you planned to run the course again?
Also we need to do some flights together my friend ,i’m losing my few skills quickly doing modeling for bms for the past year -

Woah easy tiger don’t be so aggressive. People are only showing different options.
Monopoly?? Do you realise no one is pushing you to do what you don’t want right? Said like that it seems that we need you to make some profit of you which is at least offensive.
Who said that you can´t host such a place. We live in community for people like you with initiative to open places for the old guys meet the new guys and learn with each other…
If you host such place cont me in i’m always open to new experiences with other people around here
I don’t get you honestly. -
…. What you are looking for is exactly this type of online activity. …
Kind of presumptuous of you to tell someone what they want even after they’ve said they don’t isn’t it?
What confuses me more is why after Stalker presents an idea for sharing knowledge with other BMS players and asks for feedback about that idea others seem to feel the need to jump in and promote their own particular wing or website or program instead of providing feedback on the idea itself.

Go call presumptuous to santa.
Here’s a thought, host such place and end of story.
Why ask in the first place? We have hundreds of groups around the world you don’t need anyone’s approval. -

Woah, hold on there tiger. Why so aggressive?
:roll:
Because since the beginning of this thread many guys come forward with ideas and solutions and his kicking our butts every single time.
You can create or host any kind of MP setup i believe many will be interested and then check in the thread above for players around you GMT to cooperate.
I´m out…

Just do it….

Interesting thread - I hope no new guys come along who haven’t read every website and thread in The Universe about F16’s and BMS and ask any stupid questions…

Its more than that.
They can ask any kind of questions (stupid or not)
What they should’t do is spit or orhers faces. When we offer help or sugestions we meant to help.
Good point zen -

Guys,
I wrote the same thread 2 years ago and look how it grew so far… Falcon Lounge.
You can like it or despise it, you’re free but one thing you can never take away from me: the amount of time, dedication and will to make that project come to life!
Having an online school is really hard so I built up that self teaching course to have people brought on tracks to get their journey on BMS correctly.
It is not being obnoxious or else. It is just the result of having myself been part of several initiative like EDC for Checksix or even training directly people at first on the lounge.
The result is always mixed for several reasons:
- Real life… Yeah some people forget this is a game / sim…
- Student’s efforts are not consistent… (Training between course is mandatory)
- That doesn’t always help people getting on the MP side… (Too many are just submerged by the quantity of info a MP session brings)
- Not all are willing to share their knowledge or feel fit for it… (No offense but teaching is not easy)
…
Anyway, the best way I found is getting an active community being able to support people on their needs by the help of the other members. Because in the end, many feel stronger and willing to give time if they are supported by others and see it is just a matter of dedicating time.
In the end, BMS is just like real life. Money doesn’t fall from the sky, you need to work hard to achieve your goals…
The path is mostly your own but a little push along the way by others make the difference!So get your hand on the stick! There hundreds new people everyday on the Lounge to help without asking anything in return!
Cheers
