Pick me, pick me, pick me

Good pilots, that can line up some shoots for me will get a lot of Driver Kill Assists.
I'm tank whore's worst nightmare. And I get a lot of "hey, good shooting" etc. from the pilots.
But I doubt we'll ever play together D:

Hmm. I fly for my gunner in a different way.

I drop my payload first Then i start lining up my gunner for his 4 shots, then go back for a rearming run or go for a few MG passes. BUT the gunner should have his OWN decent common sense to watch the bloody mini map. And its hard to find a decent gunner nowadays.
I need a decent pilot, want to be my friend? I can thread a needle with the laser guided missile. And with any chopper's gun I can kill anything in my way.

There are several schools of though about how to use a good laser missle gunner. I find that keeping my bombs as long as possible is better for emergency situations.

My best example is on a map like Kubra or Clean Sweep, where the MEC can lose thier airbase. If I see anything that indicates that there are enemy troops in there I want to have my bombs immediately available to clean them out. If I have to make a rearming pass, it may just be too late. Also, the gunner has a harder time taking out groups of infantry.

I'm not saying your style is wrong, just that I like to do it differently.

Yeah, these guys are the true leeches of battlefield. Just trying to rack up cheap points, because they can't play and they'll score more by getting 30+ kill assists that by playing on the ground or with thier own vehicle. I hate these guys as gunners, but even more so the total novice pilots who aren't so bad that they crash, but not good at hitting anything (watched a bomber pilot only get 2 kills over 5 minutes on gulf of oman - I took over the piloting and only averaged 2 per minute because he matched my kill count with his missles).

Oh man, I was flying with the worst pilot and copilot I've ever seen in BF2. He made it first in the pilot seat so I jumped on the co. He was flying up and down all the time when he could manage to level the plane. Most of the time he was flying on one side. Somehow I managed to get one kill before he crashed in the ground.
After we spawned he wrote in teamchat that I should fly. So I grabbed my stick and showed him how to fly the bomber. First run I spotted three or four targets and dropped my load. Some kills, no assist. I leveled up some good shots for him but he didn't take them. I rearmed at the airport and dropped it on a CP with a lot of infantry (thanks to UAV) and then lined up shots for my co again. No reaction. So I decided to fly only for myself.
