Fix planes...
Sick of people going 30-1 or 60-4 and just zipping by and getting one shot kills with zero opposition. You have a handful of AA guns that are easily destroyed with absolutely no cover. It's like a red flag for anyone to knife, snipe, nade you by hopping on that turret. This is a fundamentally broken aspect of the game.

- best joke of 2017.
The 24/7 planehoggers in the trenchfighters must have a syndrom or something. Nothing is more shallow and boring and easy than that. How can they endure the boredom? Unless they dont get bored and value the big K/D ratios from it. For whatever reason. Perhaps it's to feed their E-ego.
Characterized by whining about how they cant counter the AA truck. I kid you not.
Make the bomber buster plane faster and more agile by default.
Now there isn't a counter all aircraft that also functions as a dive bomber (coincidentally the best bomber for the reload).
Attack planes provide better air to ground support, but the pilots that fly fighters only do so because they're immune to anything but another fighter.
The attack plane is also much slower and less agile than a fighter, making it much easier to down with AA despite having more health than one.
I can't wait for all the plane bumboys to start flaming me on this but you can all continue to live in your 3.0+ KDR bubble and do one, if you think sitting in a near indestructible vehicle and farming kills takes any sort of skill you should try getting your boots dirty at some point.
Rant over.
Ironic.
Your biggest problem on the AA Isn't the enemy infantry or tanks IMO. It's still Fighters that are going to kill you the most on the AA. Playing some of it last night and one game the previous night, it's even worse now that AA Doesn't shake the aircraft. It definitely annoyed me that it did, but it's so easy now to just fly through the AA Fire and drop darts on any AA Gunner. It made it much easier to farm infantry because I wouldn't have to spend the time to dart-snipe the gunner, I could just fly over and be done so much quicker.
No skill needed, every rookies can keep even the most skilled pilots out of the map.
^^This.
I love flying in BF1 but once you know where the static AA's are it's easy to avoid them and learn what angle to take them out from (due to sight lines), AA trucks on the other hand are a different beast due to being mobile and giving the player overhead cover.
They are kdr hunters from cod thats all.
Edit: I specifically address the trench fighter because AA fire is even less of a concern for it due to maneuverability and speed. It also has no other threat in the air besides other fighters that may, or may not, decide to engage.
Just backing this up. Fighters already were able to easily just outrun the AA Most of the time, and had this been before the patch, I would've just kept flying and dart-sniped the gunner. However, now (as shown in the video below), I can just fly at the AA And easily just bomb him and fly off while only losing effectively half my health (I went at him with 96, and came out with 45). Unless an enemy plane jumped on me afterwards, I was able to just casually fly out and repair afterwards and if someone went back on the AA, just do it again.

Atleast when I was forced to dart-snipe gunners or rely on the team I would be out of the action for a bit, depending on how bad my aim was. Now AA Gunners might as well not bother shooting at fighters. :L
If that aa gunner wasn't shooting the attack plane first, I think you would have met your maker.
Perhaps. Then again, I too could have handled that differently instead of just flying straight at him.
ME TOO! SHOOT AT PLANES!!!!!!!
(But not with the AA gun because they're for area denial. Shoot at them with your primary weapon.)
Another one of the best jokes of 2017.
