Here... go off line and make slicing passes at the drones. I don't use the gun sight, I use the cockpit bars for aim. Figure out at what distance and at what time you should pull the trigger as the planes cross across the cockpit bars. For me, its about 300 meters away and as they cross the two nearest bars if they are at around 200sih mph.
Yeah, that's right, you just got your rear handed to you by a fuggly puppet!

I'll be looking for you!  I've been flying the 109s again this tour, and having fun with them.  Would love to get some pointers and such!

the problem with the 30mm is not learning it, its unlearning it.  Once you get used to the 30mm - you overshoot with every other gun, lead too much, and fly your plane for the roll-over snap shot (instead of saddling like with most planes).  So once you master the 30mm, you know you are sorta screwed unless you are one of the naturals that seem to be able to switch planes and wepons and still pull of lots of wins.
