Default Aim points

Hey guys.. I am curious on a couple things.. I have noticed that while shooting bombers that attacking or getting hits from the rear don't seem to "ignite" them as fast as an attack from head on, side, top or undercarriage... What is the Ideal arera to hit a bomber like the B 17 or HE 111? Seems to me that it is a very specific area...

Engines. Always aim for the bomber's engines. You get enough rounds in quick enough, or just one really good lucky burst, and you'll have a B-17 or He-111 going down in flames for sure.

Yep, engines or cockpit if your angle of attack allows it (especially on a head on).
Else you can mess up the steering controls (elevator), or fuel tanks in the wings.
Shooting at the fuselage will not bring a bomber down.
