Sometimes if I'm jumping target to target, I go after the quickest one I can lock on to. Only after downing them do I realize I just denied someone a kill, and I feel really bad about it.

And as far as your co-op tactics...I invite them with open arms. The IL-10 is the only thing I fly, and not for the tail gunner. And I seem to have an amazing AI gunner, he's downed at least twenty player aircraft while I was on someone in front of me. He's on his way to a raise!

Yeah, it happens to the best of us. Can't be totally careful all the time. I know I've accidentally killed my share of teammate kills, especially when we have the rare close game (most of ours end up being blowouts). I feel bad afterwards too.

As for the tactics, it really depends on the pilot too. Bad IL-10 pilots are easy to take down. They fly nice and straight trying to get tail gunner kills, and let you dive, climb and shoot them in their guts =P

...good IL-10 pilots actually put up a good fight, and manuver aggressively to keep their guns on you. Personally, I think you almost HAVE to double-team those things if you want to take them down with any efficiency. Even a G-6 has to hammer away at them to down one (in Arcade).

Now what I really love are people who try to bring medium and heavy bombers into a team battle or strike. Me and the guy I usually fly with LOVE to blow them out of the air with rockets >=D lol. Das takes pride in not seeing any parachutes pop out. Says he's saving the infantry some work =P. There was this one IL-10 in a team battle once, and Das must have blown him out of the air with rockets 8 or 9 times before the match was done. Das loves his rockets. lol

Das_Ubersoldat? Turncoat jumped ship on Rogue Squadron to join Hellhounds! Heh, the mate's alright, he's a good fighter and I love playing with him. As far as those bombers go, I am quite the nimble pilot in mine. I've flown over 200 matches in mine, and take great pride in being able to hold back B-17's in it. Axe99 and I actually won a 2 vs. 3 match with a B-17, He-111, and 109 G-6 on the opposing team. If the rockets miss, my hail of cannon fire doesn't. I know the weaknesses of my plane and I compensate for them. A plane can only do so much, it's up to the pilot to make a plane formidable. If you fly on PSN, look up Zeroptimus and we'll have a go one day. Might even be up for it right now. And yes...I love my rockets too!

Yep, that's the guy. Im a Hellhound myself.

That's how any good pilot should handle himself. The plane is only as good as the guy behind the stick. The IL-10 is a fine plane, and goddamn tough to kill sometimes. lol

I do fly on the PSN, gonna go ahead and add you. Might be fun to have a go, or fly with you sometime (do you use a headset?). If you have a squad you fly with, I know Das wants to organize some squad battles with other groups. Those are always fun. Fun to team up with other groups on larger battles too. I know we fly with Nephillim and his guys sometimes.

I love bomber hunting...especially in the P-47. If the rockets don't get them, the .50 cals shred them pretty quickly. I love my Jug ^^ ...still keep my 109s around for straight up dogfights though.

Ah, the P-47. I'm a Freight Train Fighter myself, as you've read. I use a headset alright. My squad comprises of Englishmen though, and being the only american (And having a full time job), I'm usually left without a proper squad. However, I'll fly against the most grim of odds, so me and randoms versus you guys is no big deal for me. I shall be on soon!
