BlackWolf,
1. you need much more practice and flying hours to aim better
2. If you can get a stick it's better, more accurate and easier to aim than keyboard ( i myself still using keyboard till now only cause of some difficulites getting one shipping to my country, but i wish i have one)
3. stick with spitfire for now, over all good plane for a beginner.
4. when u aim at a plane there is some rules, only start shooting at 2200 distance range or LESS only no more, all planes have different shooting ranges but that's average for all planes.
5. don't shoot too early
6. the more close ur to the target plane the more u put ur gun cross closer to it/or over it..
7. when you shoot at a turning plane like 1500 ft distance from you, DO NOT put ur gun cross (+) over it, aim ur gun cross on front of it! like 10 feets ahead for example and this distance change depends on the distance between YOU and the TARGET plane. but it need alot of practice to estimate the relationship between the range and distance to get the correct value on where to aim.
8. when you are going head 2 head with a straight coming plane, when it's far away put ur gun cross a bit over it, the more it come closer to u the more u lower ur gun cross above it exactly.
Bullets need time and force to travel and are affected by earth gravity too..after a while they will change their path, you should consider all that.
and i'm ready and will be glad to give u lessons if u like anytime, just ask..
