Fishu is who I was talking about, and noone has beaten his record.

Fishu's was due to a bug, not legit kills.

I've seen lazer go into the hundreds and I think I saw citbria (can't think of his other name) at like 500 something before he was killed one tour.

I was flying with Lazer when he was at 100 something and the vox was hilarious.

I don't have the time or patenience to let dying get in my way of fun.  You have to fly amazingly timid to avoid getting ganged anywhere.

I, as a few of my squaddies so eloquently put it is that I, “John Wayne it” when I get to a fight :)   So usually I will get around 4-5 kills before I die.

I gave up on keeping my score up to par along time ago.  This doesn’t mean that I do not try to fly smart, I just like to have fun and it has deemed less stressful, I get enough stress in real life.

You arent the only one. I've spoiled myself on updated planes so much, I wont fly the Temp or Typhy...

^_^ we need some ground rule for this. Like No Perkie plane or something. Should be an interesting lil goal since you can only do it once a month and til the first death!

There are some rules that have been accepted:  no ditches, or discos.  The disco one is a bummer.. I've lost a couple of nice streaks, in the 80's, to discos. Then again, I had my longest streak ended by a 234 so I'm an unlucky tard. 

Currently there is no "rule" against perk planes but doing it in as perk plane would  cause an asterik to be next to a new record, IMHO.  However, FX1 had a nice streak in a Tempest once that was pretty darned impressive because it was in one flight.  I know he posted it already.. 50 something. I was in his squad at the time and towards the end some of us were in the area to help him but he didn't need it.  The way I remember it, we spent more time staying out of the way than anything else.

We should really have a Wall of Fame for kills before first Death, or we can go kills in a certain plane before shotdown. Set some ground rule for it. I think it would be fun. Killing stuff is easy, dying is pretty easy, but staying alive after # of sorties is hard, the odds just stack up so much =/.

Feel free... long kill streaks are not that fun though. Towards the end of my longest one,  a few people were looking for me. And thinking about staying alive above all else was  a little stressful and not as fun as getting in there and mixing it up. Also, if you run off 200 kills but only have like 5 kills per hour.. I doubt very many people would be all that impressed..... no offense.

No it was not a bug. Fushu was the best player in AH. The were many strong sticks those days like Hristo, Torque, Mitsu, Fariz, Tbolt, Vila and lots more, but Fishu was the best. Just check his score in beta tour 2. An believe me the flight model in AH beta was much tougher than it is now.

I'm not saying Fishu wasn't the absolute God of AH. I never impugned his 733tness so you can rest easy at night.

  Fishu's streak was a result of the volcano bug.

first sortie of a new tour i would always fly into the biggest red mass i could find and make sure i dont get out, stopped me getting any foolish ideas.
