Code Effect

sea hawk - Long life (since this time is final day of enemys).
fastfire - Rapid fire.
byby - Seeking missles.
firefest - Long rang flamethrower.
aaa - Air to air turrits.
Easy bombing:
-------------
When bombing with a Stuka, fly at an altitude of 5 feet above the ground
with your landing gear out (to prevent crashing), and just when you're
about to crash into your target, drop your bombs, pull back on the mouse
or joystick and raise your gear. You should have destroyed your target.
Hints:
------
If you're commanding the British war effort, resist the urge to send every
available plane into the air at the first sign of trouble. Chances are the
first sightings of enemy aircraft are nothing more than diversions, meant
to draw your fighters away from other critical areas. Instead, withhold
the bulk of your available fighter strength until you can make a reliable
determination that the enemy is indeed committing its forces to battle.
Hint: Penetrating airspace:
---------------------------
Sometimes the most effective way to penetrate Britain's air defenses is
to come in under its radar range by flying below 500 feet. Just remember
that low-altitude barrage balloons and light antiaircraft fire can cause
serious damage. What's more, it won't take the average RAF squadron more
than a few minutes to take off and engage your low-flying formation.
Pilot proficiency:
------------------
It's important to routinely examine the proficiency of each of your
squadrons. If you're commanding the RAF, you'll want to use your veteran
pilots to intercept enemy bombers while your less experienced fliers
grapple with the enemy fighter escorts.
Deployment:
-----------
Do not send every available plane into the air. Usually the first
sightings of enemy aircraft are diversions that are intended to draw your
fighters away from other critical areas. Withhold most of your available
fighter strength until you can know where the Germans are committing
their forces.
