Should make it really interesting and makeit so you are only allowed 1 plane to get your 5 kills in. 2 Sorties in the same plane and your OUT!

Just a though. :P

I'm not sure that would be a good idea.  That is fine for the potent fighters, but doing that in a D3A1 or Ju87D-3 is asking a bit much I think.

Yeah.  I think this is going to come down to how much time you can spend in the game... but who knows?  I see a lot of guys requesting a ton of new planes, when they never fly the majority of the ones we have.  Good to break the monotony.

Just a slight change:

1. Land 5 kills at one time, unlimited rearms, in all planes with a designation other than just "bomber". This includes all attack planes that COULD be scored as bombers (i.e. a20) I'll post a full list when I get home tonight in this thread.

2. Dropping bombs on or straffing GVs does not count as a kill

3. Tallies start at the beginning of next tour on April 1st.

This is going to be rough  =)  

The good part about this is flying planes that you normally don't fly.  So I started out with an A20.  I saw a guy about 5k underneath me with a con trailing him, so I dove in trying to catch them.  I was pushing 450, but the plane didn't seem to compress so I thought as long as I didn't make any sudden moves, I would be alright.  NOPE!  Freakin ailerons and elevators rip off and the plane's nose goes flying straight up.   That was magical.

I only got 2 in a p40 with 3 assists before I ran out of ammo and couldn't reload because the fight was just about dead.  Had 3 in an f4f, but got wasted by a spitV because I couldn't see him through the 4 feet of iron padding behind my seat.  

I spoke to wadke last night, and I don't think his night was going any better.  I think he got vulched by a panzer while trying to take off in his a20.  =)

Howi,

Do deaths factor in here at all?

We could go the route of having Howie pick one type of aircraft to fly each week. See who has the best score with it. That would be much easier to prove. It would also be much easier to show the score for that one aircraft.
 So like one week, we could do the A20, then the next week we do the SBD, so on and so on.
