The gunner cannot hit the ME-109 given those relative positions
and trajectories no matter where he aims.

That is the correct answer.

If the gunner fires straight back when he is at the aiming point
(e.g. re-lable 'aiming point' to be 'firing point' then the bullet
will drop straight down from that point, right?

If you change the question you may have any answer you wish.
