Just checked my stats, and apparently I have more kills in the Fm2 than anything else this tour, 73 against 16 losses. The two airplanes killed most are N1Ks and SpitXIVs, tied at 6 apiece, with the B-26 being third with 5. This is the kind of k/d you shouldn't be able to get flying a slow turny bird off the boat into furballs, I attribute this survivability to the toughness of the Grumman bird.
Last tour (my first in 2 years) the numbers in that bird were 25/21 though, I guess I was still getting my "sea legs" back under me so to speak.
