My bombing run
« on: September 12, 2010, 01:03:19 AM »
I am slowly getting better with my bombs :D this time I actualy almost hit something.
Well I just want a bit of advice, in my bombers I always lose alot of hieght this one is ok as I only give him %50 fuel, but is there a way to get a good height.

Well I just need advice on the bombing as I said but can someone give me a few tips on how to be more accurate with my bombs and point out anything I am doing wrong in the flight.

Yes, the Aces High Trainer Corps website can! Go to "level bombing techniques" and particularly take note of the "Calibrating Your Bombsight" section. With proper calibrated bombsight = pinpoint accuracy, without it = holes in the landcscape.

On climbing - Besides a reasonable fuel loadout you need a lot of patience. And use auto climb "alt-x", I saw in your film that you were trying to climb manually. You were constantly pulling too much, getting too slow and just wasting energy in stalls. Use autotakeoff & autoclimb for the best steady climbrate.

If you go to the Training Website like Snailman said, you should get all the help needed.

Personally, I don't use them when taking off.  I'll get about 300ft alt, level to gain speed to about 200kts, then set for about 1k VSI.
