Zooming around at low level on the Death Star.

HAHA! Well...I'm going for a few months so I'm giving away some of my secrets  Standard of flying in the whole mod is definitely getting better though.

My favourite moment was hanging to the side of a cruiser and holding the trigger. Lasers were pounding the hull and the pilot was doing everything he could to shake me off. My favourite ever text was the pilots "Get the F****** X-Wing off my hull!" just before he went boom.

I'm actually waiting for people to reply with "I shot Twigs once. It felt great." I know Woody is bound to add that

Twigs tips for fighter success!
I fly with a stick making small changes extremely easy to do for me, compared to keyboard and mouse.
Getting in behind the enemy is good, but dont get too close or you show on their hud.
Y-Wings can take a bit of a pounding, stay low to the deck and make sure the gunner seat is occupied. You can then easily bring down any following Ties. Pilots should refrain from moving about and throwing off the gunners aim.
Don't go head to head unless your REAL confident. My stick lets me keep my shots in a steady stream, but those using a mouse may find it strays wild.
NEVER fly straight in enemy territory, move it around to both hunt the next victim and throw off pursuers.
A single X-Wing with a good pilot can take down a cruiser on it's own. Come alongside the cruiser and brake damn hard. You can almost stick to the cruiser just a few feet off the deck where gunners cant reach you. Plough laser shots into the hull and wait for it to go boom. You will be a prime target for stray Ties though, so have a wingman patrol.
Firing a spray of torpedos when going head to head can be enough to break up a pack of Tie Fighters, pick out a single fighter or head straight for the bombers.
Anything with a rear gunner is dangerous. Stay underneath out of his sights or come in from the sides.
NEVER shoot at a target unless its standing still. Aim at least one to two ship lengths in front to score a hit. Or if like me your shooting from distance, aim around a transport length in front. Yep, fighter sniping is fun
Use rudder when turning to help keep a target in your sights. Ships with boost can also turn faster when using it.
Bombers should focus on bombing the big stuff. Let the fighters take care of the little stuff unless your on your own. When a fighter turns up, run towards him and hope he picks up your pursuer.
Some maps allow you to repair, dont neglect this! It will also rearm you if you've used torps.
