Hey, at least you can get off the ground. 8 years plus and I can just now taxi around the runway without hitting buildings. Good job!

Good job!

I can get off the ground fine now and land ok too. In air to air combat I've hit a good few enemy planes but haven't managed to kill any. I've killed a few enemy guns on the ground, as well as infantry. Many wounds have been caused by my plane too to ground targets without killing them. My bombing isn't going much better at the moment, I've managed to get into heavily defended areas to drop my bombs but I seem to miss the target most of the time. My bombing kills so far amount to 1 ATG and a couple of Infantry, lol. I'd love to have seen the rifleman's face who was hit when I dropped my entire payload onto his head. :) We'll get there Ffaff, many deaths will occur and many hours will pass, but we'll get there. :) Nice post Ffaff. :)

Problem is that while training I only have access to a small fighter-plane, and I'd love to practise landing these larger planes before I head out with a bunch of paratroopers in the trunk! ;) Looking forward to trying that too!

Flying into heavily defended areas is great fun, flying low then climbing at the last moment to drop troopers.
