Zero Dark Hundred, 18 April 1944. Feldwebel Gerald Raetz, I./ZG 1, is just over 45 minutes flight time in his first combat sortie when he gets his first kill. The Mosquito squashed at the end of the runway.

Minutes later his luck changes. He will survive the war as a POW.

sorry for sub-par visuals, I took this screenshot on a whim mid-mission because it just looked so nice
if I could, I'd re-take this shot on maximum settings, but alas

You leave your Il-2 parked unsupervised for 10 minutes in a bad neighborhood...

After 11 years of flying IL-2 GB I have just tested the first time a bomb sight for level bombing (Ju88A4)....

Spoiler

-Set the altitude and speed in the bomb sight, but set at first the max. speed of 600km/h to be able to look far ahead.

-It is good if the whole formation has big quantities of SC50 bombs...

-select the SC50s for the salvo and maybe interval to ca. 0.1s

-Most difficult for me was to recognize the target early and to align the plane in direction to the target

-do not forget to open the bomb bay

-press the bomb release trigger a bit before the target...

Why, he's so close I could ping him with my trusty sidearm and then disappear unseen into the grassy knoll. He's hiding behind that fallen tree, the dirty skunk!
