Q: How to bomb when target has cloud cover?
A: What clouds?  (Fly below them?)

Q: How many and which planes u have to land to get a "landed succesfull?
A: One, you still get one death for each of the other planes that died though.

Q: How to land when under pressure without loosing one of ur satellites?
A: Once you get a reasonable lineup, and drop your gear, the drones will auto-land.

Q: Is ur squad logo displayed on the other buffs too?
A: Don't think so, the drones have a reduced LOD(level of detail) to keep FR's up.

Q: Why do the B26 wingmen don't have the forward guns displayed?
A: Reduced LOD, they still fire though, formation strafing can be interesting.

To land well and get em all in.....

DO A NICE LONG RUN IN.....the planes will line up when gear comes down and you are at a reasonable airspeed...I put em down around 165kts which is the speed we have to drop em below in the C130.

LAND LONG.....by landing long and not "on the numbers" your fellow wingmen can land on the runway as well.

Anyone try putting gear down and then dropping eggs?  Im gonna try that next.


REGARDS!

I got three B-17s landed the other day and went to the rearm point. The wingies just sat there and didnt move. I did shut down engines after landing and stopped, then restarted them and moved to rearm pad, if that matters.
I didn't think they would rearm, that pad is kind of tiny
