Gun positioning
The guns on your plane are behind the engine, on the wings or on some planes in the nose(this is for the primary weapons. Your guns on the plane your flying are not going to go were you aimed them at close range, your going to have to use your elevators to posistion yourself to go above the target and keep your guns fireing when your doing this. Thatis what I do anyways. It is best to get distance on the target and try again and the game turns the throttle down so you don't over shoot. My tactic works best with planes with cannons or lots of machine guns(like the spitfire mk1 or the p40) because of their power.
