I go for the cockpit, then if that doesn't work, I aim for a wing. (I guess it's the right wing, as that's the one I usually seem to hit)

The negative part about aiming for the fuselage I've learned is, that you either send them straight to the tower, or you dont and they're almost not even damaged. Where as the wing, you'll most probably take all, or part of it off.

I'm lucky to hit within half a kilometer of the plane anymore.  I simply cannot aim; when I do get a shot, I aim for whatever part of the enemy plane flies into my stream of bullets. :D

10 20mm's at 200yrds and it becomes irrelevant. For bombers I go for the inner fuel tank in the wings or an upper 12 at the cockpit.

If you can actually aim at over 200 then either your just really good or I just completely suck.

When I can see it, the wing root....its the easist kill for me with four .50 cals.

The way I fight usually leaves me with out a clear view of the bullets impacting.
