These are found in Canvas Eagles:

Special Abilities Table

Pilot Abilities:

Cannot Be Tailed: Pilot may not be tailed by any enemy other than an ace (five kills) or pilot with tailing skill.

Maneuver: Pilot treats all restricted maneuvers as unrestricted. Reloading, unjamming, and observers firing is still prohibited; if critically damaged, aircraft must test for destruction; penalty for firing while performing a restricted maneuver still applies.

Spin Skill: A pilot may only choose this ability at 250 experience points or greater. Pilot may voluntarily put his aircraft into a spin; uses a normal die roll for spin recovery.

Spin Recovery: A pilot may only choose this ability at 250 experience points or greater. Pilot may increase his chance of getting out of a spin. For every 250 experience points gained, a +1 bonus to the Spin Recovery die roll. A roll of “2” is always a Spin Recovery failure.

Tailing: Pilot may tail aircraft at a distance of up to 4 hexes instead of three.

Stability: For combat, aircraft stability C is treated as B; B stability is treated as A. Observers do not receive this advantage when flying with the pilot; pilots may not take this skill twice.

Gunnery Abilities:

Die Roll Add: The attacker adds +1 to the die Combat die roll.

Unjamming: The attacker’s weapon may be unjammed on a 3, 4, 5 or 6.

Deflection: The attacker ignores deflection when shooting.

Observer Abilities:

Observing: May observe from altitude level 5, or lower, or from a hex adjacent to the target if at altitude level 4 or less.

Bombardier: May add +1 to all bombing rolls.

Ace Abilities (must have 5 kills):

Concentrated Fire: The ace may concentrate his fire at range 1 or 0. The ace rolls 1d6 on the Concentrated Fire Table (located to the left of this table), and all damage goes into the Concentrated Fire “target” area.

Fire Value: May shift combat table one line up (ie. a CV total of “10” will become “11”).

Range: Fires as if ace were one hex closer (if combining with concentrated fire, the ace may concentrate his fire from two hexes instead of one). The range may never be reduced from one to zero.

Canvass Eagles has a lot of resources we might dip into.
