"Land a plane thats damaged" achievement

[Ripley]

Landed a plane just now that had a bullet hole in it, but other wise it was all green, still got this achievement.

You should be missing pieces in order to get this imho.

just a suggestion.

I agree.

[Pand]

Just landed one with the following missing:

Right horizontal Stab
Right Elevator
Left Elevator
Right Gear

Maybe different achievements for levels of damage?

[Slate]

  I took off forgot to check my convergence so I turned around and landed. Broke my gear on landing and got the "Kiss the earth" acheivement. Should not be for damage brought on by yourself I don't think.   

[tunnelrat]

Yeah, plane should require damage that causes an adverse effect on handling or otherwise the ability to land the plane (gear, etc)

[NatCigg]

I always thought getting home without elevators, or no fuel, or no vertical stabilizer (Multi-enginge plane), was one heck of a achievement.  

Edit: How would a computer filter out damage that came from landing to be sure the achievement was awarded accurately?

If/then statement around if the damage was registered by an enemy or not.

No achievement for running over a plane with a tank?  What a ripoff!!

you think that in a period of 1 month there wont be anybody that lands a plane hit by enemy fire?

Remember, this is just a beta.  The final achievements may include none of the beta achievements.

Would be cool to have multiple types depending on what form of damage, like the pilots that glide 7 sectors home on nothing but wind after a oil or radiator leak. "Runnin' on borrowed time" Or landing a plane that's missing both wing tips. "Look ma, no wings!"

 

[F77]

Perhaps if the enemy caused damage exceeds a certain value you should get an "On a wing and a prayer!"

[Shade]

Different levels I think would be good.

"Walk it off."  A few bullet holes, nothing damaged.
"Amputation." One piece missing.
"Hurt me plenty!" Two systems down
"Lil Brudder." Three pieces missing.
"Tis but a flesh wound!" Four or more systems down.

[Torquila]

"Swiss cheese", for those sorties where you seem to absorb lots and lots of bullets but never receive any critical damage.
