Just wait till you master the gunner side of things, unless you come against a real ace you can really rack up the kills! Plus it gives you something to do whilst waiting for bomb respawn!! I've even been known to take it into dogfights and team battles!!! Enjoy the big bird!

Thought you were referring to Branko57 for a minute.

I actually think P47's and Stukas are much harder to kill than B17s.

B17 is a piece of cake to bring down once you work your up n under out. Blind spots at 12 and 6 so take advantage.
The one I have major problems with is the IL10. Get someone in that who knows what they are doing and its a real effort to bring down. We had one guy in a team battle last week in one and he got 20 kills with his rear guns. He just kept it at full throttle and gunned down everyone who tried to catch up with him. I was in a spit and found it damn near impossible to get a belly shot on him

Afternoon DK! Add another to that list of aces I was mentioning!
If you get any of these 3 your pretty much dead, run fast and saty very low and you may have a slim chance! Best advice is run and hide!!!!
