Yeah...there have been plenty of times Ive made poor decisions only to realize it afterwards. There have been plenty of times Ive made a 2nd bomb run into a hornets nest, or, made a bad move against a fighter. I guess what matters is if you learn from it cause this is simply not a game your going to master in a few months.
I have a theory that you will learn it much faster if you concentrate on one good all around airplane. Thats why Im spending 75% to 90% of my time in B-26s, "besides it is the uber-bomber".
Right now Im keying on gunnery while rolling the airplane with my pedals. Im spending at least one session a day in the TA with the target or with guys practicing in fighters.
