Useless, hordes of zombies don't care about what falls on them. They just keep moving. Cluster bomb would do a ton more effective damage. Even then, good luck finding them alone.
BTW, flamethrowers won't do anything, it will just turn the into a burning heap of meat.
It may not be instant kill but infected mindless zombie or not, I don't think they'd simply be able to go for while on fire unless your in the path as its already coming at you. In order to come after you it still has to see/hear/smell you, and being on fire i'm pretty sure they aren't gonna be able to do that. Providing you get its face too.

+1 , Although Eventually the fire would melt them away completely, but that could take a while, and the flames would also serve as a beacon to all other undead in the area as well as the zombie actually becoming a torch which could cause harm in other ways to survivors, so it probably is a bad idea to light them on fire unless it is to dispose of already re-killed zombies
flamethrower vs zombies in an building = fail not only will you have a zombie but you will also have to worry about a zombie on FIRE coming after you lol
and with supplies mine are one of the easier ones to find and the fact that they dont make a clean whole in the skull (more like tear it to shreads (which is how you kill a zombie)) the heli takes diesel i believe so just clear an area pump up enough diesel to last to the next city and start city hopping.

But you will run out eventually. Also most gas stations aren't helicopter accessible, this means you having to get out, and pump the fuel with little protection.
I do like your choice on weapons, being able to share the ammo with your other gun is a good idea, and im pretty sure it won't be a big problem finding ammo for it.
Big fail to all those who went for a car or any form of transport.
You have to remember during a zombie out break that not only will most roads be blocked and cut off that cars relie on finiet fuel and as such will only go as far as you have petrol.
Also they make noise which will attrack the undead and are limited to where they can go.
Its better off going on foot
bur for the other options
Weapon = sharp, smooth kicthen knife (stab through eyes or head) or hammer (yet again smash on head or poke through the eyes)
Armor = normal tight fitting clothes (anything lose of that hangs can be grabbed by a zombie), anything that can be used to stop a person (i.e. zombie) from biting you is to combersom to wear when on the move.
Well for a start how do you plan on holding that gun? not only is it heavy but takes a lot of upper body strength to use it, also where would you find ammunition for a military issue weapon during a large scale zombie outbreak? The gun also wastes more bullets then any other type (all it takes is one bullet to the head to kill a zombie) but with your choice of weapon you would waste all your ammunition in no time. Also the noise of the weapon would attrack zombies towards you.
As for the armor, 1 = where would you find an 16th century suit of armor. 2= how would you move with it on (extremly heavey). All that suit will do is weigh you do, giving the zombies time they need to peel off the armor and eat you.

Well, it's like I like to say: Hypothetical weapons for hypothetical situations.
Lets say I happened to have a suit of plate armor and a minigun with loads of ammo. I'll estimate that backpack by itself can hold about 2000 rounds of .30cal ammo for it. I'm not a small dude, so walking around with that stuff wouldn't be too difficult. Since speed isn't an issue when I can just mow everything down I don't have to worry about getting tired from running all over the place either. Attracting more zombies to me is fine, too, since I can just waste them like the others and clear the area faster. The situation just gets easier as I find spots to funnel them into smaller spaces for easier shooting.
I'd much rather do it that way than sneak around and wait for some stray zombie to nick me with their teeth in the dark somewhere.

lol you dont have to be big. mini gun + suit of armor you are not getting anywhere fast. also your dead, suit of armor is not fast. In fact you cant even run with one on for more then a few meters. and like i said because your confined in that armor all it takes is one zombie to grab you from behind and your dead.

The point is to start shooting with your back to a corner lol. And it's very possible to run in armor like that. Being realistic in a zombie apocalypse gear topic is boring.

Thats good...because when u run out of bullets and zombies eat you. I can come and take stuff off of your dead eaten body
Well if anything were to really happen you'd be stuck in the UK with no guns and I'd be sitting on my small arsenal stateside lol.
Question? Have you ever shot a gun? if so have you ever hit a target? in this case it would have to be someones head. Do you have any idea how hard it is to hit a moving target (even a walking one) in a small area at long to medium range.

Yeah, and yeah. Hitting things with guns isn't that hard at all really. Even moving targets, the AK's sights are easy to seat for that kind of thing. Might get tricky if you're trying to hit anything past 100 meters though.
Didn't you see me post my guns before?
