Nice format.

A nice addition would be to have the aircraft total losses listed, for example

Week 9 (cumulative)
Allied 1700 losses (600 air-air; 300 AA; 700 groud; 100 op)
Japan 1050 losses (150 air-air; 450 AA; 50 ground; 400 op)

Week 10 (cumulative)
Allied 1900 losses (700 air-air; 350 AA; 725 groud; 125 op)
Japan 1200 losses (175 air-air; 525 AA; 50 ground; 450 op)

or

Week 10 (new losses)
Allied 200 losses (100 air-air; 50 AA; 25 groud; 25 op)
Japan 150 losses (25 air-air; 75 AA; 0 ground; 50 op)

Yes AmiralLaurent, i'm thinking about this possibility but in a month issue, with additions like aircraft production, japanese/allied aces, etc..
this take me a very lot of time but i promise to post it in near future.
