Their 6 isn't the only trouble zone for interceptors unless the pilot is stupid enough to leave his defence up to AI turrets. As far as I can remember, the only blind spots on a B17 are at 3 and 9 o'clock, or if you go really high or low.

I've certainly done several head on passes with an enemy bomber and been able to fire at him with my turret pretty much as soon as he comes into range in front all the way until he goes out of range in the rear. I can't hit him for sh*t as he goes down the side, but that's my problem, not the plane's
