One thing that this doesn't make clear is that you MUST complete the requirements for getting the Ace to spawn AND down them without using a checkpoint in-between.

You CAN load checkpoints prior to getting them to spawn, and you can still get the unlocks if you load a checkpoint after downing them, but you cannot load in-between.

This affects Aces that have spawning requirements that are seperated from their actual spawning by at least 1 checkpoint, such as COMET and GAZELLE.
