I couldn't agree more. Early in the war it's very easy IMO to pick down Ansons coming from the british isles, they only use the bombs they (sometimes) carry with them and when they do they are horribly bad. First thing: Get an officer trained to handle the pea-shooter you carry with you. Next up: get bold and brave, the swordfishes and Ansons are easy targets that go down easily...

The nasty side-effect is when you shoot down a couple planes and go bold, and take on 2 or 3 at the same time and then suddenly think you can down the whole RAF.

those poor sailors...
