How to unlock the Missile Attack 1 achievement in Time Pilot - Definitive Guide
As Vermin said, the bombs are tossed by the pilots. However, there is some more info that could be relevant. Firstly, the planes don't always drop bombs - for the most part they shoot small little shots since it's the first level and they want the game to be easy to start to get you adjusted. Therefore, you wont see any bombs being thrown really until you've been playing the level for about 5 minutes, or at least that's how it was in my experience. This also occurred if I happened to die (it would take 5 minutes from my new life for anyone to throw bombs).
When they toss them, they arc in a lob like fashion. Dive down so that you have slightly more time to shoot them, obviously making sure to avoid getting hit by said bombs. Remember, if you kill the boss (in the first level it's the zepplin), the level will end, so you'll want to avoid doing that until you've shot down all ten bombs. Don't try to combine this achievement with progressing through the game, since you're likely to accidently kill yourself as you prolong the level. The achievement will pop as you hit the 10th bomb I believe it was. Make sure to physically count how many you've shot down. Ones you run into counted for me if you're curious.

It does not pop until you finish the level

Unless I got it at the same time I accidentally killed the boss.. because I just got the 20 homing missile one during mid-flight

In 1910, about halfway through the stage, the bi-planes begin to drop bombs. As you’re flying around, if you see one drop a bomb, quickly turn towards it and try to shoot it. There is no meter to track how many you’ve destroyed. Just shoot down as many as possible, and once you reach 10, the achievement will unlock.
You can lose lives and still obtain this achievement as long as you shoot down 10 bombs before the stage ends. Try to accomplish this before the blimp “boss” appears as it shoots in all directions making this a little more difficult. Basically, just try to avoid shooting the too many bi-planes until this achievement unlocks.
