One thing I noticed is that in Pacific Fighters campaigns, the aircraft simply race to the target. It's very difficult to keep up. Some of the missions also have you go further than your aircraft's historical range, and you will invariably end up in the drink.
In fact, on one mission pertaining to Wake island, my group of Wildcats went full throttle from take-off to the target area, where we met some Zeros coming head-on, also at top speed. My flight simply crashed into their flight, and I was mortally wounded from the ensuing explosions. I haven't played a PF era campaign mission since. Forgotten Battles era campaigns are nicer because after reaching their final altitude, the AI slow down to a reasonable amount, and you can easily fit into the formation with them. The only problem is that subsequent waypoints typically involve instantaneous speed changes which forces you to be on your toes. For instance "One minute to target!" results in every Ju-87 shedding 50km/h instantly, causing me to rocket past the group, and now I have to worry if I'm going to hit anyone, while trying to find my place in the formation again, while being shot at, and while only moments from the target, which I absolutely cannot miss because I've got only one egg to deliver, and I've been flying for an hour....  You could try to increase your rank at the start of a campaign to the highest level, or play user-made missions in which, hopefully, the cruise speed of the AI to certain waypoints has been edited from the default.

Do you have IL-2 1946?
It has every plane, mission, campaign, etc. to date (for whatever reason, the differences in campaign playability still exist, as I mentioned above).

Here is a link back to what I found useful.
On the old Pacific Fighters Forum there is a link to a lot of questions that you may have. It does deal with a lot of reading. The info is vast and has at least ten years of info in it. I hope you find it helpful.

As mentioned before try to get the 1946 version. At the price of $8.95 and up it is a huge bargin for your flight simming fun. The 1946 version will need to be patched to 4.09. A new patch will arrive from those working on 4.10. The Daiedos Team. Enjoy..

Use the community help
When asking for help at the community help section. Explain what type of error message you are having as well as a print out of your system specs. You have to open up and explain what is wrong to get help. The moderators there are very helpful. Most members are here as well, even though at timesl they don't get along .
Don't get confused. The mega stuff is a mod. They will not help if you have installed a mod here or there. Uninstall everything and begin again. Make sure everthing in your folders are uninstalled or deleted. Correct your registry with a registry cleaner and begin again. If you are having install issues, post at the community help section and help will soon be on the way. S! http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/frm/f/49310655 Also the most basic. Check the minimum system requirements. I'm not a tech guy so sorry if I'm not able to help you dx your problem and help you get into the virtual skies. Ps. try to limit the size of you pics. They tend to get upset do to the rules on limitation. Last edited by Jaguar; 11-15-2010 at 10:41 PM.

if anybody could help me install the forgotten battles mod i'd be greatly appreciative. i've googled and read every site and i just can't seem to get it to work with windows 7 64 bit. if anyone has, please share with me how you got it to work. the splash screen would come up, but then it would crash everytime.
also, do you install it in a different ubisoft folder? i noticed a space in ubi soft in the directory install and didn't know whether it was an error or it was a stand alone pack all together. in any case, thanks to whomever can help me get this awesome mod.
