I can´t for the life of me find how many missiles a zooming flyer can fire per turn. Is it still two per turn as it was in 6th or has it changed? (I´d love a page reference or something...)

The bit about missiles was removed from the Flyer rules (or at least I can't find it anymore) and there's no special rules for Missiles either (apart from Missile Lock).
So I would say they are treated just as normal weapons, i.e. you can fire up to 4 at normal BS and the rest as snapshots.

that´s what I thought too, so I could potentionally fire four missiles and the rest as snaps?

Yes, but if the flyer only had 2 normal weapons it would be kinda silly to waste firepower like that.
You'd be better off firing 2 missile and 2 other weapons at full BS and saving the last 2 missile for the following turn.

It is a tactical decision,
I can see some reasons to release everything in one turn but they are very situational.
|
8th made it so I can no longer sway Tau onto the side of Chaos, but they will eventually turn aside from their idea of the Greater Good to embrace the Greatest of pleasures. |

it was purely hypothetical  . I´ve recently bought two Nephilm Jetfighters and since they have quite a lot of weaponry I thought I should ask how much I could burn at once, if and when a situation calls for DAKKA-ing :-)
