I do not like to extend when on this type of run. Quick yo-yo turns are critical to keeping hangers in sync.

This is where any semblance of realistic flight model goes out the window.  What would happen to the gunners and especially the bombs still in the racks when bombers do this kind of high angle maneuvering?  Lancs and especially TU-2s do all manner of loops and steep dives and climbs; all while keeping their drones and being able to drop bombs and defend themselves.  The gunners would be thrown all over the place and bomb racks would most likely get bent up pulling Gs with the bombs still in them.  Pfffft.

I've often wondered how well the drunks in goons would take it if suddenly thrown into a vertical climb or loop and what kind of fighting condition they would be in after being subjected to such manuvers

There use to be a "splat" sound in AW I think. It would be cool if you pulled too many maneuvers in a goon that sound would roll with 10 "splats" and a few groans.  :devil

so let me get this right..  You used the most uber bomber in the game to flatten a small base and town, the only obstacles you met were a P40 and a B25, and this is worthy of chest thumping ???   :headscratch:    my how standards have fallen
