You got it Flakbait except that the points awarded is based on both the aircraft you are flying and the one you shoot down.
It will probably be Enemy plane value / Your plane value.
So if your plane has a value of 5 and your enemy's plane has a value of 10, you would get 2 points for shooting him down while he would only get .5 points for shooting you down.
