3rd generation airraft are the most challenging and rewarding IMO. You have electronic, but still it's all about the man above the machine.
F-5, Mig21, Viggen are a blast
Most of the time as I take off, my tyres burst. I can't find the correct speed for rotating. Sometimes they burst because (I am assuming) I am going too fast, other times (assuming again) I rotate too early and there's too much weight on rear wheels.
Any suggestions?
I highly doubt it's the Apache, I read somewhere months ago it's something supposed to be "technologically new" or something like that. So it could be either a transport or modern russian fighter

The end of the year is round the corner, did ED said/teased anything about the announcement of this new module?
I can help you with 1 and 5
1. Check axis sensitivity, I believe they are set by default at 15. When I set them to zero it toatally changed and I can even air to air refuel
5. Always stay as high as possible. Cruising at 30k vastly improves your range although you always want ext fuel tanks
