After a few minutes even with some frantic manouvering i still end up with most of my flak crew dead and a sinking boat- this is just too hard, with the whole point of the excercise being to shoot down the planes is seems a bit silly that the only way to even survive is to dive and hide until the planes get bored and go away.

has anyone else managed to complete this test... if so how is it done?

-ive survived to the end of the war in my career and never faced andyhing this darn hard!
Running GWX check all realistic's and limited's. Right away; ahead slow,decks awash (7meters), order any targets, short range (500 meters), first pass reverse back slow. I lost my flak gunner and the rounds where pinging off the hull, second pass decks where awash and I used the nav map for direction then hit the "B" key to target the aircraft. Got them all 1cas. and repair the damage. Newbie saying thank you to Neal for the 2007 Sub Almanac, the GWX Devo. team and the entire SubSim community for making a decent SubSim GREAT

PS Did it about 3hrs. ago Brouse
