adopt a neglected plane and get your name in the lights!

[Lusche]

In the upcoming edition of my annual AH Stats Report (bigger than ever before!), I'm going to shift the focus a bit from planes to pilots. Amidst other things, I will present the top scorers of 2011 in each plane.
As the year is almost done, the ranks in the popular rides are mostly cemented already: (data up to and including tour 140)

P-51D
Pilot   #1 4587 kills
Pilot   #2 2411
Pilot   #3 2169

P 38J
Pilot   #1 3657 kills
Pilot   #2 1765
Pilot   #3  570

Spit 16
Pilot   #1 5162 kills
Pilot   #2 2862
Pilot   #3 2423

(...)


But even with only 2 tours left, about everybody can still get a top spot - If you chose to fly one of those rare birds of the LW arena, for example: 

Bf 110C
   #1 170 kills
   #2 130
   #3  72

C.202
   #1 552 kills
   #2  98
   #3  97

Spit I   
   #1 40 kills
   #2 30
   #3 26

D3A   
   #1 35 kills
   #2 31
   #3 28

For most of the ENY 30+ planes, the numbers are very similar. Should be easy to get enough kills in two tour in one of those "crappy rides", shouldn't it?

So get outta your jet, get into a I-16, brag about your manliness and get on the front page of the AH Stats Report! 








Limitations:
Different pilot id's can not be combined. If your 100 kills are spread over 10 different pilot id's - bad luck.
All kills will be checked for inconsistencies... you know what I mean

[MachFly]

Is it going to be for the year or each tour?

year.

[MachFly]

In that case two more questions:

How is this going to be calculated? Combined K/D for 12 month for each plane or some other way?

  So if I'll be killing only bomber it wont count? (I wont be but just trying to understand what you mean)


I'm going to go look for a way to change my schedule  

[Lusche]

How is this going to be calculated? Combined K/D for 12 month for each plane or some other way?

These are simply the kill tallies for the whole year. The current #1 Spit 16 pilot has 5162 kills so far. The #1 Spit I pilot only 40.

I will probably add another category which is taking "quality" into account and not just quantity, but that is a different thing and not fully worked out yet.

That would not be score "inconsistencies"

I knew there was a reason why I was keeping 500 perks in reserve for the past 6 years.

Lusche, one more question. Will the kill to death ratio matter if the person has a very low number of kills in that plane? For example player A gets 300 kills and 5.0K/D in a particular plane and player B gets 10 kills and 10.0K/D in the same plane for the year. Who is going to get the higher quality status?

In that case can you please let me know when it's decided, I am very concerned.   

Thanks

Like I said before: This is a different matter and has no direct influence on the thing I posted in this thread. This is all about kills only. Just a simple folly which perhaps encourages some more use of "hangar queens".

Right, this would certainly help the hangar queens.

If TwinTail gets the top 38 spot i'll throw my fighter stick at the moniter ......pics my follow

This should go on HTC front page in some form.

Very cool, Lusche!
