Whats the highest Kill count any of your pilots have?

Historically speaking, Allied fighter pilots should rotate out of theatre after 50 combat missions (25 for Bomber pilots) and the number of aces should increase the skill level of future reinforcements (these guys went back to teach other pilots).

Japanese pilots should fly until they die, racking up hefty kill scores, but contributing nothing to the overall training level of their air forces.

Hi Dail

different war mate, those were early ETO rules

in the PTO you flew tours of duty, VMF at least flew 3 tours and then were sent back home (later in the war these may of changed also)

(part of the reason for the Pressure on Pappy B to get his last set of kills in, he was on his 3rd tour and was headed home shortly)

also during the hot days on Lunga, the higher ranks and top pilots flew the 12:00 mission (as that was the normal time for the raids to come in) the other pilots got stuck with the other Cap missions, so the younger guys may of been flying 2 or 3 Cap missions a day, while the "good" guys were flying 1
