Tired of being a strafe panel when using an online flight simulator game? Having trouble keeping your barrel roll attacks from turning into vertical rolling scissors? Wonder why, since air combat began, 20% of the pilots have gotten 80% of the kills? Do you just want to watch the good parts (i.e. dogfights) of classic flying films like "Wings", "Battle of Britain", and "Top Gun" and hear an explanation of what these guys are doing and why?
Instructor is a CIS Security Studies Program Fellow and a former USAF F-4 & F-15 pilot with 321 combat missions.
