Download the BR file and have a look, post it in a vid if you can because I've heard a lot of people saying this but have yet to see it happen.

I did it once to Anospa on Sidi. He hovered in close for what he (and I) thought was going to be an easy kill of my APC. In a last ditch effort (with nothing else to do), I began firing at the canopy with the driver's machine gun. Low and behold, I killed him. The gunship then dropped to ground and blew up. I've never been able to repeat it.

sounds like a freak occurrence when the hit box planets align and allow the pilots' hit boxes to travel outside the vehicle

I was thinking the same thing, but I can only come up with that situation when a gunship is traveling backwards, just entered a sudden deep dive or was being flown by a laggy pilot who stopped on a dime. Still very possible, though.

Ive shot the pilot out...but only on single player :|

When gunning in a gunship is it better to shoot at a FAV with the TV-missile or the gun? Also when shooting at a Air-Transport?

Depents on your ping really. If you ping is surpreme go for a TV missile FAV kill. But no TG server I can almost never kill FAVs with TVs. Thus use the Gun only.

Shot an Airtransport with a TV whenever you can. If you miss the first keep hammering it with your Gun in order to shoot passengers out.

Indirekt Fire

One Soldier at Southtown tells the Guy at Comcenter where his Rockets are hitting. The guy at Comcenter then adjusts his range and aim. Rinse repeat till it looks fancy.

Oh wise and mighty Oracle, please give unto me your blessing and tell me the secret to not sucking with the EU pistol? Verily I can knock a nail in at 50 yards with the PAC sidearm, but can't do squat with its EU counterpart.
