A victory must be awarder even after own death/jump.

Man, I respectfuly disagree

Your forgetting the second part of the mission the part your palms are really sweating.. trying to get yer baby back home. Yesterday TWICE, I had both wings blow'd off I'm just a flyin stick.. but I used heavy duty rudder and managed to return to base and land. When the plane rolled to a stop I sighed more than Al Gore and was able to deny some guy his kill. Not been so lucky ditching on nme soil, kill get awarded to the other guy anyway after working hard to ditch..
 Man, don't you think kills awarded has gotten WAY to Liberal? shouldn't there be some kind of wittness to help confirm the kill?

If you don't get the kill on an enemy, you didn't put enough rounds into him.  That's pretty simple.  Creating any kind of extravagant system to figure what "should" have been a kill is simply putting in a mechanism that tries to make up for someone failing to complete the job.

What's the big deal?

Just award kills after you're dead. They do this for ground targets (drop a torp and die... you still get notified)

And if it's a matter of scoring, just add the kill to your next sortie.

We're picking nits here folks, If I die in an HO I curse myself for getting into one in the first place.

HOs should suck. In every way possible.

Heh' I've been damaged by a wingless tailless N1K spraying cannon rounds everywhere.

I guess as long as it was flying, the kills wasn't awarded. Am I wrong?

It'd be a "probable" but not a definite.

I landed my P-51 with NO wingtips (both blown off) If you want to see the film, say so. I'll e-mail it to you. (Very short as I only filmed the landing)
