Ok guys who out there has the highest single sortie kill record?
I ask this, becuase it seems like our two newest squadron members (**MOL**) have been outdoing themselves.
About a week ago, Westy stunned us all by flying a 11 kill mission in a P-38L.
I guess all the ata boys, and pats on the back made Xmab jealous, because in the very next night he flew a tie with Westy by doing his own 11 kill Mission in a F4U-1C (I think), and lawndarted while going for another tasty bit of Spit V.
Now I know Jinx of The Flying Pigs, did 13 at the exact same time as Xmab at the same field. Because we were cheering them on over RW and our Country Channel.
Congratulations to all 3 of you guys, and a hearty <SALUTE>.
So what is the highest single Sortie kill record in Aces High?
It has to be while in production (no beta) to count out all those "gaming the game" bugs. It has to be in a fighter, and no landing behind the spawn points kills either. Otherwise, as long as you were in the air when you killed the other guy it counts. Fighter kills, bomber kills, rockets, cannons, MG's, and bombs. It all counts.
And it might help to have witness's (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) to back up any grandiose claims (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Who wins the title?

I would guess mitsu had the highest. He was a great vulcher. And more remarkably was limited by the ammo loadout of a spit.
-
I believe MrAnza holds the record with 17 kills in a sortie.
-
i think i've seen Torque with a 15 kill sortie.

I had a nice 14 kill vulchfest er... sortie one night. The sad part is that I got about 10 assists too, just imagine if they had all been kills <G>
that was in a f4u-1c btw. My best in my darling 190 a8 is 10 kills of which only 2 were vulches (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) The rest were good ACM kills ...
Then I have those weeks when I have only 2 or 3 kills by wednesday, gotta love this sim (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Funked. Kidding aside. Thats a great idea.

Yeah I've seen a few 17's think one was Tbolt. The best I've done without vulches was 13.

HEH don't forget the famous Lilly Boy with his 38 kill sortie in a B26.

Joe vs the volcano : 46 + kills (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Verm, you should have asked for number of kills in sortie per plane type. Not all planes have the ability to land multi kill sorties.
-
No Hristo I said single Sortie (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
Not sit in the volcano and use a cheat bug to get all the kills. Thats also why I said "post beta". (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/mad.gif)
I know this favors planes with big guns, lots of ammo, and good vulch ability, but I want to keep it simple (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Its not like it is a scientific contest anyways.

I like the vulch kill award idea....
Say "a kill of a plane within 1 minute of it taking off" would be considered vultch ?

Here is my best story. 4 FLYING kills (no vulching) and returning home free and clear, 7000ft and home field (F1) in sight. And, of course, the engine coughs, sputters and dies. BINGO FUEL! I almost cried. With not enough altitude to glide home, I head for a nice flat expanse to get a "You have ditched.". My best fighter mission yet, even though I didn't make it all the way home.

Jarbo had 6 kills in a B-17 once.
Sabre had 3 kills with his engine out! I think he was in a spit, lost his engine in a 3 V 1, and got them all. I was on the phone with him when it happened.

I think you've got to seperate out the capped field and "vulch" components. Torque, Hangtime, mitzu, Histro and a few others have racked up large scores in true air to air combat. To me a 4-5 kill mission (all air to air) is worth a lot more than 10-15 kills in and around a capped field. 10+ air to air kills in one flight is beyond my limited comprehension.

Landed a 6 kill with no vulching.
Probably done better with vulching, but dont remember the # cause it didnt matter!

I got 12 kills in a P51 vulching field 13
would have had more but the losers stopped taking off (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
I got 13 kills in a spit vulching field 6
(http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)
I got 8 or 9 REAL kills in a P51 between 30 and 8,000 feet between fields 8 and 7 while in beta, 3 B26 and the rest were 109's if i remember. 175 yard convergence tears toejam up (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

I am tied with camel, 6 kills, landed to boot, surprised the hell out of myself. No vulches. I dont concider them kills, a game necessity, but dont really count (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
-
mmm 7 kill sortie in a pony (no vulches), You just have to love those backfield takeoffs, flying behind the frontline, and capping the routes to the nearest vulchfest kinda sorties (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)
11 kill sortie in a 190, but this was of course a cap the field situation (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) (what did you expect in the 190 (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/tongue.gif))

9 kills landed in P51 with no vulches, not including the assists which I never keep track of. Have had a few over 10 vulching, but never have payed attention to the most I've had while vulching, not important enough to me to remember. My most memorable sortie was the day the F4U-1D came out, first flight took off from a knight field 14, flew to Rook field 22 and found 5 rooks just up and heading S torwards bishop land in a nice row, 4 of them forgot to check 6 and fell to my guns, 50 cals hehe (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif), and the 5th died before I had to bail from HO pass.

6 kill in a 190. It wasnt a vulch but it was close, their ack was up at 18 and they were flying out in spits and nikis...I was just shooting well.(wish I could remember how I did that...)

In a single sortie? I think it would have to be Mitsu. His best I ever saw was a vultch run of 21 kills at F5. I think that may have been beta days (last version tho)
-
Well, 5 using actual ACM is my best. I seem to really hover at the 3 mark and finding that to be a glass celing I can't break anymore.
But come on. Gotta count vulches, otherwise you're all pee'ing in my Cheerrios here (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) I swear 3/4's of them that day had made it up off the runway. Only one or two were spawn point knockouts. And it was in the 38. No 1C, 190 or Spit IX here guys....

My highest kill sortie was 6 kills on P51, no vulches.I bailed after one of my famous "Greedy,Stupid deaths"
My highest kill sortie LANDED was 5 kills on a SPitV on field F20...plus Hangtime who managed to ditch on my noses!!! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif) I'll never forget that sortie..."Lone RAM" vs the 357th Pony Express!! (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

My best (not that great really) is 5 kills - 2 assists and landed, no damage, no vultching. Some very hard fought wins.

Verm, you should have asked for number of kills in sortie per plane type. Not all planes have the ability to land multi kill sorties.
That was gunner + chute bug btw.
His pilot did a drop on end of the runway and he was the gunner.
Also, it was not from single sortie, but two, I think.

Does my 1500 kills fly level with no planes just before a dump count? <G>
Several witnesses to the event (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Actually I have had a 6 kills 2 assist sortie but that is about the best without vulching on the field.

Actually joemud was the one that found that when you bailed in the volcano all deaths not shot down end up being given to you. As he flew he accumulated hundreds of kills as people who augered & such were given to him as kills by the system. I can't remember who that donuthead was that invented the buff gun bail.
Fishu you got a 21 kill mission in spit too?

Highest vultch kill sortie: F4U-1c 15 kills

I was merrily testing a Spitfire and got to vulch planes, didn't need more than 1-3 hits to bring down a plane (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Hehe, don't feel bad westy, in between those kind of sorties I always had about 6 where I didn't get any kills, completely negating them (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) oh, and btw, you don't have anything to fear from me, I can't play anymore because I can't afford it (just ran out of winter gas money (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif))
