Only thing what makes the ingame HO so funky is the internat lag. You never know the opponents internet connection speed and quality.

 In real life the bullets wont suddenly hit 1sec after the 1vs1 merge pass...

they would HO the cockpit knowing if they killed the pilot and co pilot the plane would go down + they'd have the least amount of guns able to fire on them in a frontal attack

depending on fighter cover, they usually only got one pass at the bombers and were diving for the deck .. very boring for sim game play

I always was amused by those who would complain about me "ho'ing them".  I would point out it takes two to HO, and if they would instead turn their tail to me, I would be just as happy to shoot them from behind.  This concept was too difficult for the complainers to comprehend.

Great show; I've only seen one though.  I agree that the bursts seem really long for what I've read.
