What sights are you using? Post pics :)
« on: February 15, 2001, 10:22:00 PM »
Sort of curious about what kind of sights you chaps are using. I use a minimalistic one offset high, with a marker for eggs at 45 degree dive angle.

 

So, post um

Nice funked, you allied sissy farmer boy opportunist.

And you forgot a dress last time you were my submissive. It's stained, but you can wash it.

I use the same sights that Funked does.

<shakes head sadly> I'll never think of you the same way again StSanta, you Quakehead.

Tac, talk to Kirin - he's 9./JG 54's armorer and designs these cool sights  .

Tac, the gun aiming point works fine if the dive parameters are right.

I find 70-90 degree dives work best, starting from @ 10k. No rudder, and keep the P-38 at 1G. Try to drop and pull out before 6k, and if possible bomb objects closest to the edge of the bases to be in the ack vectors for the shortest amount of time. This works with any plane capable of dive bombing, and also works for rockets.

I didn't realize that many people were gaming the vertical viewpoint movement.

I either don't use the sight at all, or simply have this.

If I could figure out how to do it without getting those ugly, lopsided eye-sore sights I would.

But I'd rather have something graphically pleasing then a few more degrees for a deflection shot.

I have about 15 sights that I interchange depending on mood.

Oh btw the reason there are so many are that half are nekkid women with big racks, using the cleveage as a gun sight.
