    So is flying with a level 1 crew really that bad?
    After a minute of extensive testing, I came to the conclusion that it is indeed atrocious. Luckily the A6M5 Zero is relatively slow so you're not passing out every move you make. This changes drastically in jets.

    It's similar to tanks. Without weapon reloading at minimum, it feels like someone with maxed out reload and leadership can reload his gun 1-2s faster. Personally, after maxing weapon reload, leadership, targeting, agility and repair, I sometimes feel like I'm fighting fresh out of academy green crews with crews that survived both world wars.

      As a fairly good ground player with a wide variety of crew levels, it's just wild how much of a difference everything makes. Love when I pop a T-34(1942) in the neck with Pak 40 APHE and the driver turns yellow, but the next guy, same tank, same shot, all four crew die. Balanced.

Like the slow and turning zero's .. or the diff type of Energy fighters or the Speed Demons that are the US .. You made a good point with the zero being right above you .. even if you are fast it will still leave a window of attack for that zero . So maybe when 2 attack or the direction 2 extend etc..

    Your vid idea here was a great one. Even with corrupted footage + you letting the premise go after that, this turned out to be a very good video. Enjoyable and educational; criminally under viewed on the platform with only 26.9k * views and 1k likes.
    If you ever have the inspiration or means (or both) to make a similar vid again def do so! It has real "undercover boss" vibes: the eminently skilled giga gamer/content creator seeks to walk a mile in the noobie's/layman's shoes. I have a lot of Smite (3rd person MOBA) and WoW (MMO) PVP in my gaming background and lots of time watching the elite pvp content creators from those games on youtube. It's a common theme among them (and you[it's a good thing]) to do vids/series about helping their audience get better - and meeting them where they're at to get them growing. Just like you did with the lvl 1 crew.
    That's a really long way of saying "hey, other game-tubers do this too, and I like it plus its always v popular wqith the audience - more please!. lol. Thanks for the vid.

    This is kind of a stupid tip but it worked for me. If you have a premium heli it can be very useful to grind crew skill for planes. Heli crew skill doesn''t matter much, but me grinding the Russian heli tree (without Ka-50) gave me a level 75 air crew by the time I unlocked the Havoc. So if you buy a premium heli and use it to grind a nation's tree you can save your eagles that way. It's a bit ass-backwards but it worked for me.

      @Nightmare You have to be patient when fighting a skilled Zero pilot. You have to understand that the Zero can out accelerate and out turn, and even somewhat out climb most planes it fights. You have to use your superior speed and high alt performance to force the Zero beneath you. It takes time and patience but it is key.

    how do you keep your low tier setup for the arcade airbattles? 🤔
    in air rb it is ok to change crews to another aircraft, because your battle rank in your lineup does not matter as you get matched according to the plane you are flying with, but what if i just have a tier 1 bomber and all my fighters are rank 2? what is a battle rank and so on? the game itself just does not explain it clearly...

      Your a bait fighter, as long as the other player doesn’t know what they are doing, then you can turn them out. For shooting, fire 400 meters or .28 miles from the target and use the mgs to lead. For head ons, never do them, evade and pull up and over to get in his 6. If they BnZ you, wither down them lower and lower and sap their energy. Remember, you are a bait fighter, and that is the cold truth. You may not get much kills, but you can set him up for others to take down. Best effects are playing with friends. Hope this helps dude.
