I like Golmud, but the aa is such a pain in the ass on that map (and I feel odd saying this since I often grab the aa myself). Someone who knows what they're doing in the aa can pretty much single handedly ensure their team's victory. I was playing yesterday and grabbed the aa at the start of a high ticket round. I was 37 - 0 when some German tard on my team flipped out that I was 'hogging' the aa for too long and just started ramming me with his tank. Before that started, the other team had given up flying. We were something like 1000 tickets ahead of the other team.
I loved it, but I also know what it feels like to be on the other side. I don't have a joystick and can't fly a plane - only fly helos - and that is basically a lost cause if a good aa is up.
With the Scout Heli, as fast as it is, along with 2 engineers for repair and w/Stingers, and you can do very well. The key, as always, is to have a very good pilot(not me)... I jump on to repair and shoot down other choppers.
The 3 best pilots I've come across on the Golmud map, and I play A LOT....
*Struxnet
*MuchWowSuchAmaze (think that's his name)
*Iconoclastix
We'll go a whole map only getting shot down 1-3 times....
