I’ve encountered a few of those JU-88’s in a fighter, the key is to attack it from above as the top MG on the JU-88 doesn’t have good visibility. And with a really good JU pilot you have to pull off and come back again a handful of times, unskilled pilots will always try to just get behind and outshoot those HMG’s and get melted every time. And with the MAA, unskilled players just start shooting at planes the minute they see them, often when they are out of range, all that does it alert the pilot of an active AA. Its better to wait until the plane is well within range before you start shooting, you’ll get the element of surprise and they won’t have time to get away. If they do get away, again, unskilled players usually camp the MAA right next to a resupply, which the skilled pilot is well aware of its placement, make sure you move, its called MAA for a reason.
