I think it was 99 by Grizz in a 262. As for Tour, not sure there. Could be more by a tank player in a single sortie too, but im not sure.

Fester & Leviathan (Levi) might have topped that IIRC

Over/under on how many resups to get 99 in a 262?

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

I remember in the last year I was absolutely fed up with ridiculous ENY issues that was plaguing the game. I was upping bombers and immediately bailing on the runway for a solid 20 minutes. Gave up over 100 kills to Hoagi and airjer each. That shouldn't count but a kill is a kill right?  :x :aok

Legit flying and killing I've seen over 100 (maybe close to 150). In the early days it was a very target rich environment. You could simply patrol the route from rear enemy fields to hotspots and clean up.  Personally I did a few 40 kill runs in the early typhoon (before the roll rate was fixed).

I saw Hooter land 200 kills with a Panther, back when we had the Trinity map. GS had a similar number with a Tiger 2 same location. The spawn near v base 134.

Are these MA kills? Feels like that would be an impossibility today. People (people like merv) up Lancaster formations anytime a gv hits three kills.

Tank town days of old were wild. Also maps like trinity (and there was another one with a spawn fight in the east side of the map) provided days on end of constant gv fights. Also back then the Tiger was essentially unkillable, only other tanks were Panzer and T-34/76.

I do remember those days when the tiger could absorb anything. I forget how few tank variations  there were compared to now.

Impressive amount of ammo in those tanks.
