I've actually never had them hit me with their bombs? Maybe their just REALLY REALLY bad shots or something? But an amazing moment I've had, is flying the He-126 Salamander, which to me seems to be the only jet capable of flying at least, but even then. But anyway, I was flying around in that, and was at like 10,000+ ft, and dived towards the ground, gradually tearing my wings off with the tremendous speed. It was cool.

Oh you can overspeed with any plane, it's great fun tearing down form 30 thousand feet in a bomber, to see the wings fly off. No any plane can overspeed.

And I disagree about the jets, I find the Me-262, whilst a poorly-turning plane, is extremely stable

Yeah, that's what it said. I couldn't remember what it said.

taking out B17s (or at least trying) in the 163....(the only real use for this plane)...


going vertical in a crippled plane 109, only to have my engine knocked out by pursuer who over shoots and I mg chop his tail aiming on with rudder only before pretty much free falling to earth...

ANY sim dogfight...free for all...love it!

..the team of septics who were flying in pairs...my random team had our arses served up...

Epic fail was using a full sensitivity stick and crashing like an ass constantly

Yeah i love dog fights as well. Whilst playing on training mode, i was playing sim and got shot to pieces, so much so that my propeller and engine, plus the right wing were all destroyed. The plane then started veering violently to the right, i managed to control it until the airfield in Dover, but i couldn't take my fingers of the buttons otherwise i would certainly crash, my only option was to belly land, which to my surprise was successful!
