HTC made this simulation that I cannot shoot straight in!!!  Thanks HTC;  It's a real ego builder!!    

Seriously:  Hitting a plane, plane controlled crashes, in my territory, then ditches.  This should be an awarded kill!

I've been hit, engine stops and I land in enemy territory and I go back to tower with a ditch.  This should of been a kill awarded to the enemy pilot who knocked out my engine.

Agree with Rip.  Should be co-deaths.  I blew a wing off of a B26 plus he shot me.  I crashed first and enemy pilot was awarded kill even though he was going down also.  

Ah!  What the hell!  As long as the bastiage is down!!!

Hmmmm...think I'll have to go with the laser-guided ack, with GPS-guided bombs a close second.

Oh, and planes need to be 10-20% SMALLER...just to cheese off Crash  .

What Pyro said!

Without supporting proof/documentation, you're whining.

Great Game. We're fortunate. Enjoy it!
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

The 38 can't turn worth crud, and I have to fly the spit to make up for it.  Blah, 38 should outturn spit slow with combat flaps nose down and slow.

You smell that? Do you smell that?
Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that.
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
The smell, you know that gasoline smell, smelled like victory.

Well my number one problem is that Pyro is a big meanie.

Other than that I would have to put the enormous neon billboard icons above all others.  They are ugly, they screw up my vision when I am fighting multiple planes, and they hurt game play by removing the element of surprise completely.
