Yes, but what is the cut point? 

<x kills/month = hangar queen

solve for x.

Kills doesn't have anything to with being a queen or not. It's the number of SORTIES (usage) that counts.  jeesh

Yes, I know, but HTC doesn't publish that data so we can't ask for it.  Here.  I'll make it as accurate as we can get with the data available to us.


<x kills+deaths/month = hangar queen

solve for x.  x may be described as a percentage.

Well ok then. I'm thinking like in RL. Hanger queens were planes that for whatever reason, rarely saw action( think usage, sorties)and was therefore confined to the hanger. ergo Hanger Queen. So from that perspective we have a few in AH. In reality, it doesn't matter if a plane had 500 kills one tour but only upped a dozen times, compared to a plane that upped 500 times but maybe only landed a small number of kills. The plane (in this example) with 500 kills and little usage, would be considered a hanger queen compared to the one that upped 500 times, because it had the greater amount of usage, not kills.

Don't remember who all was involved but some of us got to be Beta Testers. It was a neat concept and I sometimes wish to this day they could have pulled it off.

It's a hangar queen if it makes a big fuss over being added and then barely gets used.

What's your hanger queen may be someone else main ride. ALL new content is a plus. Hopefully HTC stays around long enough to add everything they used during the war.

Dream on. :)

If the Meteor wins the poll there's a good chance I'll be resubbing straight away to gather up a nice perk pool before its release.

My little book says the Meteor accounted for 48 aircraft shot down, all through ground attack or 'vulch'. And 14 V-1s.
