Flying planes

[imported_semtex]

I am able to fly the planes OK, I can line up for bombing runs and that sort of stuff fine but what I can't do is turn my the plane tightly, I see other people flying planes and they seem to be able to turn the plane in a really tight turn.

For example they will be flying directly away from me then the next thing I know they are flying directly back towards me, they never leave my front view but seem to be able to flip the aircraft around in such a small turn radius.

What am I doing wrong as I can't get the plane to turn this quick.

I am using a Logitech Wingman extreme joystick.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

cheers

Re: Flying planes

Brake a bit around your turns. I noticed that too at first.

Well just keep on flying. I wasn't good at the beginning, nearly no-one is. I've trained since BF1942 and I think I've quite good.

Re: Flying planes

Well do a turn but drop ur thrust a lot quickly to then flip the bitch. Or you can turn then twist the wrist on ur joystick cause that alwasy helps and i have problems dropping bombs to

Re: Flying planes

You have a afterburner. Use it.
dont fly afterburners blaring whole time, I watch people fly burners on whole time and I laugh. Changing speeds to during certain loops and such alter the chase.

My only tips, use burners and such when needed, do not switch to missles till last second to make a kill..flash them from time to time to scan the area but dont tell evceryone your behidn them or in the area.
Also remeber bombing skill is bull if its in the bomber, a monkey can get 20+ kills in a Bomer, the fighter is were the skills come in, then its all judging it do to speed and angle...and remebering momentum, drop earlier..just try it, Im guessing if your having problem bombing an area your droppign to late.
