OK, the rest of my observations:

* You were not releasing at the exact speed. I read 265 instead of 270 Km/h. 5 km/h could introduce several meters of error (bombs will impact before the intended point) so you have the bombardier has to take that in account when fixing the crosshairs over the target.
* You were not releasing at exactly 2.000 m, but 1975m. That introduces several meters more (accumulates to above error)
* Have you taken in account wind... if there was a north component of it, this would introduce a new error with the same effect than the above.

Since I still haven't got the game or the rig to play it on - I will only make short comments.

Speed is more important than the altitude. If you miss +/-100 meters you shouldn't miss the target. But if you don't get the speed right, you will over/under shoot the target.

One more thing - in old IL2 when using automated bombsight, the cross-hairs pointed out where the last pair of bombs will land. I don't know if this is the case with CloD.

I will be of more help when I get the game.
