Lusches AH Stats Megathread

[wpeters]

Thanks a lot anyhow

[bozon]

I'm afraid you will continue to wonder. From the stats we can't tell how many planes hit the ground without any prior battle damage.

We cannot tell by plane type, but perhaps you can compare the number of deaths in the player stats with the number of his "killed by". The latter should be lower and the difference are deaths that no one got the kill for. Of course often when someone pancakes another get the proxy kill, so this is not perfect.

Yeah, I had a similar idea too, but the high number of proxies as well as the unknown number of sorties being bailed so that the pilot can quickly be elsewhere made expected significance somewhat questionable.

But here are some numbers nevertheless:
In tour 164, we had (per score) 232,279 plane deaths (death, captured, bailed). However, players got credit for only 156,386 kills of planes.

Wow

[Scherf]

The difference was me crashing into trees and the like.

OK, this means at least 1/3 of plane crushes did not involve an enemy player.

[wpeters]

Worst than WWll.   At least one-third of there crashes werent just hitting ground

[Randy1]

Keep in mind we will push our planes to limit since we are not at risk. And good intentioned ditches that catch a tree.  I lost a heavy P47N after spawning into a hanger on a pickup mission.  Most pickup mission heavy fighter planes will take off from the hanger but the heavy 47N on WEP didn't make it.

It would be interesting to know how many augers are P38s

That would be probably scary

Answer: All of them* have less 'kills' in the current year than the virtually unarmed Fi-156 "Storch" 



*= Only including planes being around since Tour 156 or earlier

[Latrobe]

Fear the Storch! The NOE Storch raids are unstoppable! 

[Randy1]

I did my part.  I died in the P39D three times in September.

[Soulyss]

Sounds like I'm going to need to get back in the 'ol 39D from time to time.

[wpeters]

Did my part in the A6m2.    Three Kills yesterday.  Beat a Hurrican 2 in the rolling scissors.  Was awesome

[Randy1]

I caught the trees last night so it does happen all too often.  Don't fly a P47 for a few days then switch to a P38.  Had LilMak coming to my sights at 450MPH+.  He obviously knew I was in a P38.  I obviously did not.
