I see I didn't get the supplemental information about how to correct for crosswinds put up; I'll have to remedy that.

I second that bozon !

Why not make it so that bombs cant be dropped unless the buffs are going level and are at a minimum alt of 3-5k for the bombs to go off.

No problem guys. Its funny I used to be a great bomber but now my drops are always different. I went offline and played with calibration for 2hours other night and found my problem out. It all depends when I go to calibrate my ground speed how far my scope is zoomed in. If im zoomed in too much I have heck of time holding them on a point for 20 secs or so, but if zoomed out a bit I have much easier time doing it and my crosshairs arnt jumping back and forth
