Gentle men

Karaya you are right you can remove the main gun with a quick burst straight down into the open cockpit but you can't kill it. If the person lands on cement you don't receive the kill. I have been taken out of action many times for this one. I am glad that they changed the osti to allow the gun to go negative. I watch out of the tower and see what kinds of cons are inbound before choosing my weapon. Osti's for A20, B25 and bombers. Wirb's for fighters. The only reason for getting tagged with a round from the WW at 2.5 is lag. I have dealt with my lag issue but notice it with others. I am always amazed at people shooting a WW at a target 4K away and then hollering for supplies. :rofl  The best trick in all AA is to shut of tracers.. :aok
Hardest things to watch for are planes dropping in on your head and good short range a20 or jabo bombs. :cry

Not with a WW.   If so, they sprayed so much they got lucky.   An Ostie or FG would be a little tougher, but more plausible.   

People here just need to sit back and go duck hunting...the stress will go away...watch for entertainment value
