Good vid, though if you're serious about aircraft, you should really invest in a joystick. You can get decent ones for about 20-30 U$, and they really immerse you much more and often let you perform better than with keyboard and mouse once you map the controls properly.

Looked cool, though an attack run would have been nice too
What's the music?

I will definitely get a joystick as soon as possible.

in my opinion it wasnt realy formation flying, the beginning was good, but alot of times you just broke the formation. and was basicly following him.

Not bad. At the end I thought you were going to fly inverted over your SL, that would've been epic
I only just noticed the landing gear on the airborne aircraft. Is that hard-coded?

@ Cpt Trips : Yep i believe so, far from realistic, but it doesnt affect the jets performance so it doenst really bother me. + i don't know how to fly.

There are 2 kinds of pilots on PR: Those with joysticks, and those without.
The 1st will always pwn the 2nd.

I think Aj is right.
As Jigsaw says, a Joystick will make the operation 10x smoother, or at least trying using a mouse.
Also, a nice trick is to zoom your minimap right in, so when you dont have a visual, you can tell where your wingmen are and when theyre turning.

That's true, there really aren't any chances to use formation flying. In training servers, it's a joke, and no one is ever that interested/skilled to do it, unless you invite some friends with the sole intent to do formation flying. Even in Desert Rats, when we could have 2 identical fighters up at a time, flying in close proximity was a death wish.
Though It's f***ing awesome on the big wake island
