I find myself using this tactic.

During a Maneuver that pulls any Gs I can't use the gunsight, rather I point the nose and get close enough where I can't miss.

When attacking bombers I come in screaming in to a near collision and pull the trigger at the merge.

The weapons are noticeably more effective at this range. You would get some kinetic advantage as well as tight grouping (IRL). In the game anyway, it's not unusual to take down a plane this way in a single pass; despite the snapshot nature of the attack.

Now I'm new to this game and I've only shot @ hurris and heavies this way so far. But I've gotten on the ground w/ 2 kills using tiny amounts of ammo.

I'm starting to "use the force" against fighters during scissors, or any high angle merge.

I'm a 109 guy so I'm happiest flying past fast and @ high angles.
