it would be interesting..... but also uselessto use in any serious personal debate as leaving the plane in the hanger at a rear field and going offline for 24 hours would be an easy manipulation to make.
True, but to be honest what use are the stats as they stand now? Anyone can go around and vulch a shade account to raise their stats.
Plus, the altitude thing wouldn't have to be ranked like the other stats, it could just be for reference.
And perhaps to counter this tactic we could do altitude in AGL, that way when your on the runway it reads zero. If you spent 24 hours at zero altitude, it would be easily spotted that you were trying to effect your average.
