Credit of a kill
« on: July 16, 2014, 03:18:31 PM »
I think if you shoot down a plane ( I mean the plane is going down) and you get killed before it crashed, you should get credit  for it. I mean the plane is destroyed even if you are killed also.

You do get credit for it. It's just that you're dead in oblivion so you don't know anything.

Because...... you dead bro  :banana:

Best thing to do is to shoot him down and not die.

Also disregard score. What difference does it make if you're brown anyhow?

Not in it's entirety, though the second sentence may be referencing my sig.

Think about your question. You're asking to be awarded a kill for an enemy who is still alive after you're dead.

Sorry, it's funny though, I do sometimes get kill messages after I am in the tower and long dedd.

I wonder if there were any instances in WWII where a pilot shot down another plane then had to crash or ditch because their plane was not fully functional enough to make it all the way home.  Either by battle damage or wear-and-tear.

Also if any pilots were awarded kills post mortem.  Getting killed themselves after earlier in the sortie downing a plane.

What was the protocol in WWII for this as far as awarding kills?
