After getting the control axes set up properly I have had no problem shooting down enemy bombers and stukas from the 6 oclock position. Despite what many say 6 oclock was the most common position for engaging German bombers in the war, or any countrys bombers for that matter. Take out the tail gunner with a quick pass from above then sit on its tail and shoot an engine or wing till it comes off. The damage model is great except for when fighters keep flying like f-16s after losing an aileron or elevator.
The damage model itself is the one thing they seem to have gotten right on release. If your having trouble shooting down bombers then good, thats how it was and should be. .303's arent big rounds and the lack of HE shells means LOTS of bullets to bring down the more sturdy aircraft, unless you get lucky and break a control cable or something. Fighter aircraft on the other hand, they manuever so erratically and irrationally its damn near impossible to shoot them, luckily it only takes a few good shots to bring them down usually.
