That's what engineers are for?
Or shotguns *grumbles about shotguns..*
Snipers = space taken up in squad so you have less spawn points.

What happens when that helicopter is popping flares and can't be shot with rockets? YEAH BET YA DIDN'T THINK OF THAT also we all need to get in-game and make a HLP server or something.

Hades;
If using tracer dart and RPG/CG, you simply tracer it twice, once -> attempt to lock -> flare -> twice -> shoot with rocket.

Easypeasey.
If using the flybywire rocket, shoot and killz.
Also easypeasey!

I have used tracer darts only twice, but I don't think that they have range to hit a helicopter flying at some normal altitude, and FBW missiles seem to lose their maneuverability far too fast to actually hit any chopper (at least when I'm shooting... perhaps that's the problem).

Don't make me fraps it

I don't have 100% accuracy with it, but basically, if my friend Bluemoon/Mipross (who used to be a FS pilot too btw ) are both using tracers, choppers die at pretty much any range

To quote a popular meme: "You aren't doing it right"

If i get an annoying helicopter pilot/gunner duo going. I'll switch to Engineer and tracer dart them as often as possible. If someone doesn't lock on and kill them by the time I get out my Carl Gustav... they will be dead. Almost impossible to hide from that combination. Sometimes I just make an educated guess and hit without the tracer dart... but it helps big time!

Well, yesterday I've destroyed Apache with tracer dart/RPG combo, so apparently I can do it right. Almost as fun as jumping out of destroyed Blackhawk, hitting and damaging mobile AA gun with Javelin while still airborne, hijacking now abandoned vehicle and killing it's crew with said vehicle.

Note to self:

Port Valdez Rush as the Attacking team gets extremely hard when the map bottlenecks around the oil refinery.  It's like baserape, but you aren't at a base.

It's far better to land a UAV on their asses just as they takeoff or get repairs.

Tracer darts!??!
Just use the AT4!
