When using GWX simply do the navigation exam (the easiest of the exams) and you'll qualify for the 1500 renown.

Since I put GWX on the flak course seems impossible.
I know it was made to be more realistic shooting down aircraft but my bullets just do not seem to hit the mark.
I've played hundreds of games in my time where you have to lead your target etc but I just don't know with this game.

It isn't impossible... (I've managed to do it a number of times) and you still have to put your bullets where the airplane is about to be. We just removed a lot of the 'arcade' feel relating to flak gunnery.

Patience and persistence will get you there. However, it should also drive home the point, that as a U-boat commander... you should be well and truly afraid of the aircraft you come across in campaign mode. Aircraft ASW patrols were the grim reaper to the U-boat.

i glad you did: when reading up on the history of it, it sounds like it was a dangerous and mostly unrewarding task - ending in death or serious injury.
