For any type of repeatable accuracy, Panos has it. You need a HUD with CCRP mode. You're gonna be waiting on a Cold War or Desert Storm arena for that.

Ive done it in the Jug.  You have to be at least 1k from the target.  AT that time raise the nose and let the egg go.  My success rate is about 80%.  I rather dive on them because I end up getting the bad end of some bad panzers main gun.  LOL

I was in a c-hog providing hi alt cap.  I assumed buffs on there way.  Then i notice buffs NOE under me.  All 234's scooting over 400mph.   THey all tossed them at the carrier.  End result was they sunk the cv (already damaged and they got away.  Well 3 didn't.

I was finishing up a town with an F4U-1D and accidentally released a 1K almost at the top of my loop into the next dive. It's kind of disconcerting to look out the side of your cockpit and see a bomb flying along side. The bomb continued to travel in it's arc long after I'd commenced the next dive, and it passed me again on it's way down as I was making my way up on the other side of town after extending from the dive..

I remember killing an M16 speeding along that way by tossing 2 bomblets from a FW190F8.

I roughly aligned the gv from at least 1,500 yards, climbed, dropped both bombs with a 1-sec interval then banked away and set route for RTB, not really hoping for anything. A few secs later, I read that I had scored the kill (with those small ordnances, it must've been a direct hit).

I bet that I was even more surprised than the unlucky guy :cool:

Was that you at the spawn and tagged me 6 times with your main....LSK I believe.  If it was it shows that I learn very slow.  That was really funny.
