The inspect airfields done the same thing to me. Here,s the key. You don't have to stop. A touch and go will do. In landing, these airplanes in the game will glide for one hellava long way in arcade. They won't stall. Come in at a shallow angle and chop the throttle early in the pattern to 0. keep the nose pointed at the beginning of the runway. When you've got the angle right. don't try to fly it, just let it glide and it will fly itself. Just keep the nose pointed at the runway. Right before you get to the runway, give it a little up elevator, level it out, and let it gently touch down bt itself. The rudder works real well in turning the plane. Leave the ailerons alone. Basically, let the dang thing glide itself right in. They will go realy slow. I can almost land on a dime in Capture airfields. Just takes some practise. And remember, you don't have to come to a complete stop. Just make sure you hit the end of the runway and give yourself enough room to work with. Speed (or lack of it, I should say)and using all the runway are the keys.
In Stalingrad, you have to shoot them down as fast as you can. Period. Keep using the WEP. Screw the engine and your mates. Tell them to attack the targets in the beginning and then forget about them. They are useless. Haul ass from one yellow target marker to the other. There are 3 JU52's in each flight. Here's the key. They all fly right at you. They are going the opposite direction. Don't take them head on or you'll waste too much time turning around and chasing them. Come at them from the left or right and turn in behind them as the get close. Get close and slow down to their speed. DONT PASS THEM UP. Click on a target and hose him. The second he goes, click the next target. Point the nose at him (rudder works extremely well here) and hose him. Ditto with the third target. They don't take much damage. Heal over and haul ass for another yellow target on the map. Repeat.
