i believe that i have killed about every single ac in the game several times. one of the good things about flying evry one is that i get to set all the views in the least boring way.

niffty.. I am not looking forward to the 190's but will get the kills quick and at least.... the views will be set.

Been there, (almost) done that. Still trying to land a c202 kill, but it seems the Modjo is not with me on this one so far :/

Oh... did I forget to mention... I am trying to maintain at least 5 kills per hour and never go past 6k agl. I would also like to maintain 1 kill per sortie at least.

come on guys... c.202 is ojne sweet ride.... Simple to fly, easy to land kills with.... Well until 4+ bishops jump on you with their standard Spit, La7, N1K setup.... and even then it takes them minutes to kill you....

And actually I wont fly many other planes this tour... if only HT adds the 2 bomb option for it as they did for the LAs... both 202 and 205 were capable of carriing the ordonance...

However, must be some burnout for me since killing planes in aircraft with cannons or .50s brings me no joy anymore... So somehow I rediscovered the power of 202....

Don't have much time to fly these days but my best K/D in 202 during the whole tour was something like 20:3 (was flying the 202 just occasionaly not for the whole tour), or during tour 30 the K/D was 56:16 (also flying it just time to time).

I'm just looking forward to see how it is going to be this tour... hehe, so if you see a lonely rook 202 then get in the row and go 1 by one please... or land and come back in 202 as well.... thanks

As for the "land kils in every fighter plane" - interesting, must try it in the future.... but not this tour... I was absent to AH since almost the start of the year so I have to accomodate to it again... for that task the 202 will do just fine....

In Tour39 I flew 60 of my 63 fighter sorties in the C.202.
Sweet ride as long as you can find the 1v1's.

After such a month you really get to love the 30mm.

Your not kidding! I spent a whole tour in one of those things and only got two stinking kills to show for it!:eek:

cool idea

i just took it!
i must LAND 2 kills in every fghter in the game, i will have to fly them in ABC order.

so far i did the A6m2 and A6m5 1 sortie in the 109e showed me that it will not be easy and then i had to log

so 2 planes down and have untill the end of the tod

Laz,
I introduced this very challenge to our squad almost a year ago, I got kills in both a chutte and the C-47, but did not finish before the tour was over. One of my squaddies did finish, and I have much respect for him. We included vehicles, too.

As an alternate game, here is an idea. For one tour, you get one life in every aircraft. See how many kills you can rack up in each plane. Save the data file when your done, then go for a second round and another life in each. I might try this one next tour.

I try not to get killed and kill as many bish as I can.

Ripsnort · « **Reply #25 on:** June 04, 2003, 07:32:59 PM »

Only 1 kill per tour? Wheres the challenge part?

devious · « **Reply #26 on:** June 04, 2003, 08:24:08 PM »

Nevermind.

Duedel · « **Reply #27 on:** June 05, 2003, 01:36:35 AM »

Thats not the badest idea. First I wanted to fly Ta152 mostly exclusive this tour (only for base defense I choose a N1k) but now I think this could bring a new challenge. Thx lazs

Actually, I'm going to eat my words on that one. I bagged 3 kills in one last night and landed all three. Low, slow, heavy F4U-1D Corsairs blow up real nice at d200. The Ki-61 needs to be flown like a 109E - energy fighter with just a bit of turning, get in close to hit anything, spend the time to climb to at least 15k and only engage airplanes below.

What I'd really like to see is a Ki-43 "Oscar", Ki-44 Shoki/"Tojo", or Ki-84 "Frank".
