Answer: Patience/Practice.
And that means varied practice, don't practice against the same bomber pilot again and again. The more you play the better you get.

Problem solved.
THIS. When sliding slow bomber guns can hardly hit you.

It's rather hard, which is one of the main reasons I gave up flying fighters.
You're chance goes up as your fighter gets smaller I find.
Light Fighters = best anti bomber
Heavy Fighters = Better anti bomber

This is partially correct.
The smaller the fighter, the easier it is to evade and stay behind the bomber. But beware of mines, a single nuke can ruin your day if your shields go down on a LF.
However, smaller fighters do less damage, so you'll need more patience until you've taken your target down. With growing experience larger fighters will be more effective.

Fix'd.
Also, I fully agree. HFs got the balance of firepower, agility and energy to kill bombers. Light fighters are a bit tedious to fight against bombers, since they lack the firepower you need to take down a BmB in less then 9000 hours. VHFs are a bit dangerous, expecially when fighting skilled bomber pilots.
