I think you will need to make many passes in order to get your kill, and beware of the auto ack that he will drag you through and the Wirble or Osty laying in ambush with their guns already aimed at you.  Oh, and I've smoked more than one aircraft with the rear gun of a 110, Boston, and B5N so dont ever discount its ability to defend itself.  ;)

Keep in mind that other people will be aiming at you, and they wont downgrade to an early war fighter.  ;)

You will hear me laughing, much louder than your stall horn as I watch you auger whilst I am still airborne at < 40 mph.

Nah, just fly at 1K. And as Storches has no reason to fly directly into a tank they'll always look like a moving target therefore it will be hard to kill them with the main gun.

I'm aware that they have no 50. I was referring to the m3 about the .50.

In real life, having shot hundreds and hundreds of maingun rounds, do you know how absolutely difficult it would be to hit a plane? With the new proximity rounds much different though they didn't have these in tank calibers during WW2? I've read of one occassion where a German Panther popped a 51 during WW2. I'm sure it happened more then this though no where near as frequent as it does in AH. Just say'n...
