Aireal Service Ribbon

[dktlx300]

The aireal service ribbon is one of the last ribbons I need, any tips on flying the fighters? How to drop bombs accurately? And I have heard of people getting medals by proxy, could you sit in a jet and arty the enemy and get it that way? I'd hate to be cheap but I really suck at flying. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: Aireal Service Ribbon

When I had basically no hours in jets I worried how on earth am I going to get this ribbon. But It is really easy!. All I did was practice and watched and learned, I got so good at bombing I could easily get around 30 - 40 kills on wake. Just practice and you'll get it

Re: Aireal Service Ribbon

Good tip is Don't learn how to bomb in a bomber, Learn in a fighter because in a bomber since they have more bombs you tend to try not hit exactly on the target, But they still hit and you get the kill, But when it comes to bombing in a fighter it is harder and you have to be more accurate
eg. In a bomber you can release them earlier and still hit, you are more slower so it's easier to aim.

eg. In a fighter you have to release them right on target to hit, and you are moving alot faster.

Once you have learned in a fighter and are getting some good kills then you should try bomb in bombers.

Disagree with you, I did the exact opposite, I learned with the bomber and found when to time and release my bombs and got used to it.

Then I start using the fighters and hit the chase rear view button look where my bombs land and improve.

And look where I'm at today

Dont go for the ribbon by proxy. Sorry, but this shouldnt be about getting ribbons just to have them. Actually go out and earn it. My problem getting the award is time. I can get kills fine, but cant stay alive long, since theres always expert pilots where I play at.

As for bombing tips, set a key on your joystick for looking back after dropping bombs, so you can see where they land. Also, fly high up and come down at a steep angle, so the boms dont drift far from your target. Bomb bases where the enemy spawns a lot at. Good luck dude.

That's simple as that

Re: Aireal Service Ribbon

one thing that really makes it hard for me is that people hog the jets and it is nearly impossible to even practice.

Thats why you practice in empty servers, so YOU won't bother anyone..
