Has any pilot scored 2000 air-to-air kills in a single tour?

Just curious.

I know 1000 has been reached, but what about 2000?

Just one example I happen to have at hand: DrBone in tour 119: 332 kills in fighter mode and 1885 in attack mode.  Very few GV among his kill in planes.
About 240 hour play time.

No not me... I don't think I ever put in enough hours in a single tour to come even close to that.

This person also did it in Tour 119.

Grizz

That was my second guess.

Is he the record holder?

I don't anyone here has the complete kill stat records at hand.
I for one only have the pilot score records. Would be a lot of work to dermine the A2A tour record holder starting from this.

Darn.    :bhead

I do want to go look at those stats for the 2000-kill tour though.   I bet that was something.

Looks like Grizz was trying for numerous kills in every aircraft and some GV's as well

Seem to recall a thread where someone had asked if it had ever been done, back around that time... I could possibly be mistaken though

Grizz and Moot, scotch, SkyRock, sunsfan, kappa and the rest of the gang was always some awesome dogfighting... Right up there with NathBDP, Levi/DMF, WldThing, Shane and a few others whose  names I can't remember at the current  moment
Edit: urchin, humble, cobia, AKDogg, Mathman, Murdr are a few more that just came to me

I wouldn't be surprised if Torque got over 2k kills in a tour in his chog.

There should be an asterisk... no records from back in the day where arenas were clogged with targets...
