This training aspect ensures the trainee has all software programs setup and optimized for missions and training such as:

• DCS

• SRS

• Ancillary programs (Voice Attack, VR software, etc.)

In order to learn an aircraft, you need to have the ability to control it! Configuring peripherals (HOTAS, button boxes) is a tedious but necessary step in preparing to learn how to fly a module.

It's never fun to load into a mission and learn that your missing standard liveries, kneeboards, or required DCS mods. This aspect makes sure everyone knows where to find and install JTF-191 addons to get the most out of training and missions.

No matter what you want to fly, it won't happen until you learn how to startup your aircraft and prepare it for flight.

Basic Startup covers the minimum knowledge need to get up and flying.

In order to train or conduct missions, you will need to learn how to communicate with others from your aircraft.

Basic Comms will touch on how to transmit and receive communications over SRS from the onboard radio of your aircraft.

Just like your vehicle, it's important to understand which gauges are important such as speed and fuel.

Basic Avionics ensures each pilot knows how to interact with critical avionics such as:

• Landing gear

• Basic HUD information (speed, altitude)

• Flaps

All aircraft have the ability to transition from ground contact to air and vice-versa. It's up to the pilot to make sure neither transition results in fire and smoke.

Basic Takeoff & Landing will cover how to do just that with optimal weather conditions.

Flying is great, but not if your lost! Understanding how to get from point A to B, and then back to A is quite important.

In Basic Navigation, you will learn how to change navigational references and know how to see the visual steering queues. 

Military pilots often fly in groups, but sometimes that is easier said than done. 

Basic Airmanship will make sure new pilots learn the "easy tricks" of keeping with their group, along with basic procedures for refueling in the air if the module allows it.

This is a digital combat simulator, so learning how to conduct combat is a requirement.

If this topic applies to your module of interest, Basic A2A Combat will cover the very basics of learning how to down a mindless drone without fear of retaliation.

There's nothing better than raining death from the skies above! 

The Basic A2G Combat course is meant to give new pilots enough information to get a taste of deploying simple, often unguided munitions against ground targets.
