what shots do you go for?

[MaSonZ]

says it in the title, what shots do you go for in a plane? i personally go for the wing, unless i need to pack up shot quickly, then i go for what i get. wondering what some people try to get, if anthing at all.

[PFactorDave]

I shoot for center mass.  My aim isn't good enough to pick specific parts.  So I shoot for the middle assuming that my margin for error is largest that way.

[Becinhu]

I aim for the red airplane...

[Motherland]

I go for the fuselage; in a dead six shot, if all else fails, I may get an elevator or rudder, drastically cutting my opponent's ability to fight; or, I may cut off all of his tail feathers, sending him shooting upward or yawing out of control; in the best case scenario, I may even kill his pilot. On deflection shots, I stand a great chance of killing him outright or damaging/ knocking out his engine.

I always aim for the cockpit area, If I can't then my secondary choice is the either side of the wing.

[Masherbrum]

Wing.   

[SunBat]

Knock  knock.  

The pilot. It's much more fun to send them straight to the tower or have the suffer for a while.

[Anaxogoras]

Cockpit.

[VansCrew1]

Wing.   

Same.

[phatzo]

I usually fire somewhere in the general direction of the enemy

[Steve]

Canopy!

[grizz441]

I shoot for the middle of the plane and then with the small variation in my accuracy, I know i will knock off some critical part if I miss.

[Ack-Ack]

Wing root or tail.  99% of the time hits to these areas from a solid burst will result in catastrophic damage to the target.

[hubsonfire]

Aim for the meat.

[Yenny]

But then I usually shoot between 200-300, it doesn't matter where I aim. Half a sec burst usually do the job.
