This is true. I normally play dogfight on sim and when I see someone going in as a bomber,especially the He 111 H-6, I dread the encounter. It is very difficult to avoid the gunners and even if you get the kill my plane is normally wrecked. The Stuka, as mattman has said, is much easier. One because it's not so heavily armed with a small shooting radius and second I think because as it is more manoeuvrable than a large bomber who normally fly in straight lines, players might get tempted into a turning fight which they have little chance of winning against a fighter. Also the more they move around the harder it is for them to shoot the other plane. Therefore to down a spit took great skill.
