![]() Rich S. wrote: Aiming point . ----- ME-109 B-17 | V The gunner cannot hit the ME-109 given those relative positions and trajectories no matter where he aims. If the gunner fires straight back when he is at the aiming point (e.g. re-lable 'aiming point' to be 'firing point' then the bullet will drop straight down from that point, right? Then if the ME-109 is close enough and fast enough the bullet will be just below the aiming/firing point when the ME-109 gets there and will hit the bullet. Your specified range of 50 yards (50 yards to the right in this case) is close enough for normal ME=109 speeds. If the Me-109 is slower or farther it will pass over the bullet unless it is also at sufficiently lower altitude. -- FF |

ups.com... The gunner cannot hit the ME-109 given those relative positions and trajectories no matter where he aims. That is the correct answer. If the gunner fires straight back when he is at the aiming point (e.g. re-lable 'aiming point' to be 'firing point' then the bullet will drop straight down from that point, right?
