Your system seems stronger than mine but yet I do not ever have crashes...really makes me wonder the why

I find that interesting too, one on one I rate AI at a 9 or so. I have him set at normal flight in the action page...it all just makes me wonder how so many others have problems. They do get hits on me, but nothing like the old Il-2 marksmen

It isn't just a problem of weak mission building imho.
I built a mission myself in which I comand the AI 109 to escort Do17 to their targets. I repeat the escort command for every following waypoint, but as soon as some Hurricanes attacking the bombers, the 109 are engaging..... fighting for some poor minutes and then heading home, leaving the whole bomber group alone on the whole upcoming flight and ignored the next waypoints totally.
One time the whole bomber group on the other side began to dive randomly after being attacked by the Hurris and made a huge right turn, allthough only 1-3 bombers were damaged a little.

It shows that there are some general (and I won't say minor) problems with the AI behaviour.

Ive never lost a 1 on 1 dogfight with the AI, and i dont expect any body else has.

LOL

If you did lose, you could join the only club with 1 member.

Fly the BOB II WOV, and you'll be amazed what AI can do.

Just to be clear I have never had issues with game crashes. I just stated that for all those that do. They don't care about ai when they can't even run the game. COD runs great for me but still has vibrating tree shadows, micro-stutters, etc. I could put up with those but cannot deal with ridiculous, robotic, ai. When I play ROF (which is far from perfect) when dogfighting it feels like there is an actual pilot in the plane I'm chasing. Never get that feeling in CLoD.
