Much as I hate to post a serious thread,, I just gotta'. My AH fun-meter bottoms out when I try to bomb anything.. SHEESH!
Anyways, my main interest is in Jabo style, using a P51, P38, P47, or F4U. I've tried every single technique I could imagine,, and still have no control over impact points.
Closest I came to getting a close impact to target was by doing this:
Come screaming down outta' the Ionosphere at target (say, VH or building),, yank back the stick, point nose up, and go up directly over target like a skyrocket..
When speed finally decays,, let nose fall over backwards (lo-G loop),, retard throttle to idle,, coast straight downhill onto target.. set view to ZOOM,, make small adjustments so pipper is dead on target..
Release bombs, click, click,, when building fills the HUD..
Nose up, full power..
Look in rear-view and see both bombs hit.. ONE IN FRONT OF BUILDING,, ONE IN BACK!! (or to opposite sides, or nearby runway,, or ANYWHERE but on the freakn' TARGET!!! (whew.. getn worked up here,, sorry)
So,, is the trick to "salvo" both at same time? (how do you setup bomb release to do this?)..
Use "Dive Brakes" (Shift-C)? Which is another story in itself.. When do them darn things deploy? I tried it in level flight and saw no speed decrease at all?
Well, anyways,, I thank thee all for any help from you guys. You clever devils who I see dropping 1000 pounders with pinpoint accuracy,, over n' over again.. (HOW IN HELL DO YOU DO IT?)
