All this stuff for nothing

First off i use TGW1.1a with SH3 commander. I captain U-53, IXD2, i have a deck gun, which i use all the time and i love it. I also have a 30mm AA gun and two swivel AA guns, which i never use and i want to use them.

I only saw one Plane in my career, it was a PBY and it didnt even attack me, it went home. So where can i go to c some planes? I have a WO and 3 sailors with Flak training but they r never used. I want to use them, so im wondering where i can go to c some planes. I want to shot them down. I've spent 10 days just cruising the Bay of Biscay hopeing to find an enermy plane but no luck.
So can someone tell me where to look?

Don't. Stay away from the planes unless you are unable to dive in time anyway.

The most surreal thing that this game GWX, has to offer is the fact that the planes are scary real..With stock SH3 I would get a report of planes with tons of time to dive and surface three times before they're in range..

For the first time playing a sub game I didn't have time to dive, and this was in a nible type II

I maned the deck guns and got one plane down, the other one damaged me badly.

I want to take on planes sooooooo bad. I'm an Ace Flak gunner, I passed the Flak Course at the Naval Academy, Ive gone back to the Naval Academy like 20 times and every time i pass the Flak Course. Im ready for actual combat against planes. What they should be teaching at the Naval Academy is how to fight PT Boats, they r the most annoying warship besides the Horrid Black Swan (Oooo i Hate them sooo Much).
Those PT Boats r like mini Black Swans, their too small and to fast to sink with Torps, and you need a good gunner to take them out with the deck guns. Plus their sneaky, and where theirs one there r two more comming fast.

England and Scotland are swarming with airplanes. Get close to the coast, send your farewell message and wait to die shortly :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

wow - i recommend firing all your guns at oncoming mosquito fighter bombers.

see how that works out.

your whole damage control screen goes red and then you get the death message almost the instant they launch their rockets.
