do you have to survive for it to count? I did it a few times last tour but I usually end up with oil all over the place and have to deadstick back to base.

lol I miss read this post thought he meant flying with multiple bombers on a bom run.

I can't think of me ever killing all 3 bombers on a single pass, I think the best I've done was two of them.

I've done it several times lately with a 110. Fully loaded with cannons you can hose down three Lancs so easily it's almost horrifying. All you need to to do is close in a bit and fire while using the rudder to spray the area.

You can bring down bombers from a long way off too. The 110 is like an airborne Ostwind. You have to be careful though with friendly fighters arounds. I blew a B17 to shreds the other night only to blow up myself as my rounds found a pursuing friendly fighter and I was the victim of yet another killshooter.:(

With a lot of speed and an oblique setup you can get three 24s on fire in one pass even with a pony. Very much not easy to do.
If you like the Sick Puppy Custom Sound Pack the please consider contributing for future updates by sending a months dues to Hitech Creations for account "Chalenge." Every little bit helps.

The oblique attack (7 to 8 o'clock when you open fire) works best for me coalt with the buffs, and usually I am coming full tilt... because the attack fails to get all 3 more often than it succeeds, and I need plenty of E to roll over the buffs and come back down from their high six.  Or to run like hell if it's 999000 or tatertot... not that there is anything wrong with that!

If you have to climb up to the buffs to get coalt with them... do something else. You are meat on the table regardless of what angle you come in on them. A 7 0r 8 oclock attack (or 5 to 4 o'clock) ends up on their dead six before you even open fire, if you are too slow.
