That sucks. I'm tryin to get the bombs too. Its hard enough to win in that plane and then you don't get the bombs. They do seem to err more on our side, as the prior post said. If we ever get a patch, it should be nothing to unlock palnes and weapons. I think I like it being difficult rather than easy, though. It makes getting the unlock very satisfying when you finally get what you're after. Keep tryin. You'll get those 500 pounders soon enough!
