I've am blessed with a killer FLAK gun crew. Four officers with FLAK qualifications and they're really good. I've got the IX/3 conning tower with the Vierlingsflak and two Zwillingsflak gun - and this combination is a death trap for enemy aircraft.

Strangely, I have no fear of Sunderlands, Catalinas, Hurricanes, Wellingtons and Grumman Avengers - but B-24's scare the living s__t out of me! In my career I've been damaged, nearly almost sunk, by more B-24's than any other aircraft. Thankfully I always encounter Sunderland's or Catalina's most of the time which are relatively easy kills. Oh yeah, I like hunting in shallow waters so diving to safety is often not an option.
