Placing some cameras on different heights in FMB gives you already some nice panning possibilities.

Takes a little bit of magic, gleaned over many years of practise, a Lock-on has a lot of cameras that IL2 doesn't.

Bomb drop can only be achieved by Blue-Screen super-imposing at the moment (that's what I did in Secret Weapon over Stalingrad). Hopefully BoB will have new cameras, after Oleg asked for recommendations from the better Movie-makers out there.

Actually that last-line isn't true.....but I wish it was!

Cheers, a hopeful MP.

You can do some tricks with static cameras by dragging the view position back and forward, but you're stuck with a single camera locked onto your aircraft to view in flight.

To get a free camera filming an aicraft in flight, one way is to fly a 'plane cam' around your subject aircraft and use the wonder woman view as if you are filming the action (makes for a very realistic effect).

If you want to follow a bomb, it becomes real difficult. Like MP says, it's probably easier doing some Blue Screen and CGI work.

One possible way is to use a mouse emulator to zoom out away from an aircraft as the bombs are dropping. Or you could set a stationary camera up where the bombs will hit (you hope) and use the mouse zoom again to follow the bomb in.

This shot toook me AGES to get right:
