Nice one. I wondered why sometimes I dropped one bomb

[tehpwnerofnoobs]

Good guide, now I have to get a joystick, my 0 kills 14 deaths in jets isn't very impressive..lol

[Dangerdog]

Wait, ramming your plane into a Blackhawk isn’t a tactic?

[Professor]

Sweet guide, thanks man... oh by the way there is no such thing as centrifugal force. (Just had to nitpick:))

lol no, u had the spelling right. what he meant was that in physics, there is no concept of a centrifugal "force"

very nice guide. WOULD come in handy if i had a damn joystick...

Very well written. I've been playing Flight Simulators for years now, and I still learn a few things (Most notably about the 1 bomb 2 bomb switch).

I find with 2 bombs the trick is to release earlier than you think. I can get it where 1 bomb lands right behind and the other lands right in front, basically slaughtering anyone in the middle.

Ok, that was just copying from Microsoft's Combat Simulator 2 handbook, wow real resourceful, i have the game and the handbook. I know how to do all that stuff, but it's not the most useful on BF2, it's like imposible to do a Immelman and stuff, and dive bombin aint the way to go, plus if you roll to evade enemy fire, he'll put a missile in ya, rolling only avoids gunfire, WWII does not equal the near future, not the most resourceful guide for flying.

Thanks for the info.

dive bombing works wonderfully.

rolling in a certain fashion that im not gonna bother mentioning works fine for dodging missels.

but, i didn't realize that was from a flight sim handbook, but i would be interested in reading it. not that it would do me much good though, i've spent most my time flying in this game, and before this it was in DC.
