I enjoy jabo'ing in the stuka with the 3 bomb loadout. Its a lot of fun to fly over an enemy vbase in a sector with equal air to air con numbers, role over and dive straight down with my siren wailing (usranger's sound pack) and pull out at low level on the verge of blacking out with 3 kills showing in the text buffer. Hussle back to base, land, re-arm, repeat.    :cheers:

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.

Oh yeah, heavy Pony or Jug.  Smack a couple of GV's, rocket some guns down and kill some airplanes.  It's the total experience! :aok

Well said!

BTW those sights are awesome!

Interesting looking at the different techniques. All similar but different.

Technique for a hangar in a P51D (favourite Jabo ride)
salvo set to 6 and rockets selected
I come in at anywhere from 10 - 15k (15k takes a little more speed management on the dive)
Commence  approx 45 degree dive and throttle back
I control speed to around 450mph
At about 2k I fire rockets aiming at the top of the roof line for the hangar
I hit back space twice to select bombs and dip the nose so I'm aiming at the base of the hangar where it meets the ground
I release bombs (time between rocket release and bomb release is probably less than a second).
Pull nose level take evasive manoeuvres if needed then hit wep and start climbing.
99.9% of the time the hangar is down and you are back up around 7k to start a fight with any nme cons. If a lot of cons around don't bother climbing just hit the deck and run as fast as you can :)

One slight modification for me...stay low until out of the ack and 1.5-2k from field then go vertical. IMO  :salute But Big YES! to your plan.  :aok
