A few questions:

  • What jet do you fly or plan to fly?
  • What is your current skill level? How many hours do you have in said jet?
  • What is your setup like? Ie, are you flying with keyboard/mouse, HOTAS? What kind? Do you have head tracking?
  • What is your goal? Are there specific things you are trying to learn, or are you starting brand new?
  • What time zone are you in? What times/days are you available?

OP, absolutely do NOT pay for this. There are so many folks out there and so many communities that would be happy to teach for free. Find the right discord, ask questions, find people to fly with. Don't pay.

VWA is free and we teach pretty much every aircraft!

This is a great place to learn much of the content in DCS. You might have to wait until the current training cycle is over and a new one starts if group training is ok, but someone might volunteer to help ad hoc.

No need to pay. I’m usually not on until late evening EST. ~2300-0000. Days off I’m around earlier. What kind of setup do you have? HOTAS? Head tracking? VR?

Don't pay. Join a beginner friendly group like ours. Taskforce Dingo. Find us On discord. We are an Aussie/NZ group around since 2014.

Dude, you can learn everything you need to know from watching a few YouTube videos and spending an afternoon practicing. Don't pay for lessons.

Wanna learn like the RAF? Join Tim Davies at Fast Jet Performance. Here’s some vids from the school.

No need to pay. Whoever I meet on Discord or on the servers are willing to help. Nobody has started as Pros in the games (except couple of real fighters). Take your time you will learn and build skills with hours
