Pilot:
THE VERY FIRST AND ONLY KEY YOU PRESS AT START IS THE W KEY. NOTHING ELSE. This guarantees you that you'll be in the air and not crash into the ground.
Do not fly directly into the firefights. You are just asking to be shot down by ZSU-23, .50 caliber machine guns on the T-90 and Vodnik, and countless number of AT rockets and homing darts.
Fly near the edge of the map and high altitude such that unless the enemy went through a course of projectile ballistics & physics and geometry, they will have a very hard time hitting you. By being far away, enemy fire is subject to a long travel time and drop under gravity. Furthermore, projectiles under automatic fire disperses like a cone.
Once you're at the edge of the map, move left or right steadily such that the enemy cannot stick you with the homing dart or hit you with the UAV.
If you hear a loud beeping noise, it means a rocket is coming straight at you. Don't think. PRESS W + A + LEFT ARROW KEY or W + D + RIGHT ARROW KEY. This will almost guarantee you to dodge the rockets, even the ones that are guided.
Whenever possible, spam and fire your rockets where your enemy could be. Priority should be vehicles, but don't sacrifice too much altitude or distance to increase your accuracy. SURVIVAL IS YOUR MAIN JOB. LET THE CO-PILOT DO THE KILLING.
Bored doing this? Then land it and get out and berate yourself for your selfishness.
Co-pilot:
You just spam that 25mm gun. Just keep firing it. You have infinite ammo. Why the hell are you trying to conserve your fire? Don't see an enemy? Well let that cannon find it for you. Keep firing that thing everywhere. Fire that thing on anything that's moving. Don't see the enemy? Just fire. Even if they're your teammates. Don't aim. You're firing unholy number of rounds per burst. You can't miss even if you try to miss. Still don't see the enemy? Fire where the Russians spawn, don't give a damn if you can't see what you're killing. You're killing. Don't see the enemy? Just fire. You notice someone set us up the bomb at M-COM stations? Then fire on that station. None of the buildings at those points collapse. Your fire is cover fire to your teammates and hell fire to your enemies. Don't see the enemy? Just fire! You see those cute little yellow tracers hitting the chopper or trying? You should right back. They have 12.7mm machine guns and 23 mm burst cannon that fires maybe 6 rounds per burst. You have a cannon that fires probably 30 rounds of 25mm per burst. Don't be scared. Just FIRE. Is your pilot being an *** by hiding behind a hill or building to shield from fire? That's probably because you're not doing your job. Don't worry, JUST FIRE at whatever's causing those yellow tracers to come at you. You see a UAV in front of you? That's your dinner. JUST FIRE
Your motto is: "When in doubt, JUST FIRE"
I'm saying this because often pilots usually fire these gunships right into the front to be met with huge amounts of enemy fire. I'm saying this because often co-pilots want to see targets first before they fire. No. That is not how the Apache is to be effective. The Apache must be blind to killing. It must be that speck in the air that's the bane to the entire 16 member Russian force. It must be like the sun: seemingly small compared to its awesome power. In fact, it's best the sun's behind your tail or above you as then the SUN'S BLOOM ACTUALLY BLINDS YOUR ENEMY.
