I wish people would use the wish list forum to post their brilliant ideas, and be smart enough to not post all their stupid ones.

But I am under no disillusions of my wish ever being fulfilled.

Phone tethering all depends on the quality of your signal.  Many people do it with no problem.

Just know that the He-111 is quite a challenge in the MA...  definitely find a squad to fly with!   :salute

Remember back to when you were flying JU-88s vs Late war aircraft.  It will be similar to that.

Since my Bionic got the ICS update, I've been playing via my wifi hotspot (for years previous, was dialup) works like a champ, have only steady 3g as well

If you don't want to join a squad, maybe just try to find some friends to hook up with so you aren't alone.

Or, make sure to follow an attack in progress.  The He-111 is even slower than the Ju-88, and the rear defensive options are even fewer.

When I logged on last night the wind had been turned off. Apparently it was causing bomb runs above 10k to be horribly inaccurate. I never got the chance to make a bomb run, but my squad did a 20k b-17 raid on a vehicle base and was lucky to even drop an egg within the field.

The bomb sight is supposed to correct for the wind if calibrated correctly.

It sounds like there is  a bug that needs to be addressed.

Found the cross wind bomb sight bub.

It is fixed for the next patch.
