Well I played the game for the first time today! What a rush!
Awesome graphics, cool sounds (thanks to Meatwater), and a pretty good flight model!
I did have some trouble on the B-17G High Altitude bombing run. I couldn't aim correctly..... Any suggestions?
Also, the Target Next Aircraft button (T) doesn't seem to work? How do I know the aircraft has been targeted?

Thanks,
JG300_Hartmann

The T only turns on target labels. After T press N for nearest. The square on the labeled plane nearest you will turn into a diamond. Padlock will then lock on that plane. Thereafter, each time you hit T it will move the target lock diamond to a different plane. For more info once a plane is targeted if you press C the lower left corner will display the squad of the target and distance...not for purists.

Ok, hints for high Altitude bombing. One, turn on the hud. Two, make sure you are flying LEVEL! Three, aim. Four, drop!
IT WORKS!!!

For fun man one of the gun positions on a B17 for an entire mission and just play that position. It's not always action packed, but it gives you another perspective, and when the planes come..they come with vengence.

N takes you to the nearest enemy.
T is the next enemy in the list.
Shift-T goes backwards.
Alt-T to the next friendly.

After tapping one of those the first time, tap F1 to go into Padlock mode. F1 again to get back.

Alt-V toggles the target overlay boxes
C toggles the target information box
