Yeah, I'm not supposed to be in that room. I cheated to get in there. I was really frustrating some of them. <g> In there your stuck with(or at least i am)the P40.......they all have the same plane too. They must have changed the room....all have fairly equal planes. Some tips? 1) default aiming....don't bother shooting till their 1000 ft or less away when they are heading for you....that distance closes fast. 500 ft or less when they are running from ya. 2) when they are in a tight turn and you can lead em with your firing......do it by about 6-7 plane lengths at 500ft distance (and slightly above cause your bullets will fall)down to about 1 plane length at about 100 ft 3)If it is obvious they are turning tight and you can't get a lead on em.....give it up right away.....keep your speed up and pick another target straight ahead if ya can. By the time they turn around your usually to far for them to hit. 4) Don't fixat on a target.....if ya hit em badly enough......let em go....keep your speed...the kill is usually yours....let some one else finish him off.......you'll still get the kill, and you havn't lost your speed and maybe already got someone else in your sights. <g> 5) Altitude is king! Its tough in that arena though cause the planes are pretty equal. 6)When someones on your six move your stick back and forth, and left to right, seperated by just a couple seconds....fly as erratically as ya can...they can't get a bead on ya then. If ya notice someone behind ya and heading for your six( say 4-5 oclock high), turn hard into the direction their coming from. That usually gives them the hardest shot...they might hit ya once or twice, instead of nailing ya. If your damaged bad....head for the base or a bunch of friendlies. 7) If ya bail out in your territory....its not a kill against you, just a lost plane.....same with a crash landing. For a crash landing make sure your gear is up and your speed is about 175 or less. A crash landing doesn't always give the enemy a kill...pisses them off. <g> 8)The website also has lots of good tips. Thanks for watchin my six! That arena is quite the furball!! If I think of anything else, I'll let ya know. Good luck! :0) Ramblin
