Playing online last night, I had an Il-2, and the other two (dogfight), Hurricane and Il-10.

The Il and I were flying straight at each other, trying to gun each other down, guns blazing, whilst at the same time, the Hurricane is straight on my six. We're both taking hits as we fly at each other, and he roars over my head. I hear an explosion, and see on the compass that the Il and Hurri have hit each other! I very lol'd

Try setting it to 16 HE111s. Now THAT is impressive when they all collide into each other. It's funny enough just to see them acting like fighters

I'm unfortunately yet to unlock the B-17, but I landed on the frozen Volga with the 111s behind me, thinking they might all hit the ground. Then they ALL dropped bombs on me. I did find it funny though

I've actually never had them hit me with their bombs? Maybe their just REALLY REALLY bad shots or something? But an amazing moment I've had, is flying the He-126 Salamander, which to me seems to be the only jet capable of flying at least, but even then. But anyway, I was flying around in that, and was at like 10,000+ ft, and dived towards the ground, gradually tearing my wings off with the tremendous speed. It was cool.

Oh you can overspeed with any plane, it's great fun tearing down form 30 thousand feet in a bomber, to see the wings fly off. No any plane can overspeed.

And I disagree about the jets, I find the Me-262, whilst a poorly-turning plane, is extremely stable

Yeah, that's what it said. I couldn't remember what it said.
