Corsaire and all: yes, you can fly more than one sortie per day.
But you can only fly as many sorties as WOFF gives you for a day - when WOFF manager
changes the date to next day, you must stop and wait, until that date is reached in real life.

Also, you can stop flying for days - you only need to advance time in the "Briefing" then,
to catch up with the real life date.

I know, it is still like a beta version - I had never thought it would be so complex.

I think that if we fly a mission every two weeks and are "nursed" in between, we might make it through the war ! winkngrin

Wasn't there a rule in the original DiD campaign that you had to retire your pilot after so many weeks in hospital ? I seem to remember three times 14 days or more, but can't find it precisely.

The hot brunette as well as the blonde both work for the Ministry of War.
When the doctors ask "I wonder if this pilot can stand another battle?"
they may reply "Well, from what I saw, he can..."

Corsaire, no more complications, pls... dizzy

Well it's not really complicated for you, it is up to each player to follow on his pilot's hospital days.
Wouldn't it be strange to have pilots still flying after ten or more stays in hospital ?

Yes, maybe - but I don't think they will survive so many accidents.
That would be incredible chains of luck.

Let's keep in mind, that a sim always offers many more dangerous clashes with E/A
than the real life pilots had - we must compensate for that somehow.

But if more users think we should terminate a pilot's carreer after soandso many
weeks in a hospital, then please tell us here.

@Rick_Rawlings
Yep,amazing ! He survived a first plane crash in Feb 1916 with two broken legs and the stick breaking his jaw. Then later in May 1917 they had to move him to a place with a hospital nearby as he had to go there after each and every flight. Then a terrible car accident in October sends him back to hospital ! Don't know how he managed to fly after that until the end of the war !
And all this to finally disappear somewhere in the Atlantic with "L'oiseau Blanc" while attempting the first crossing...

@Olham :
No problemo if you find this is too much, it's just that I seemed to remember this rule from the OFF campaign. But I'm not either 100% sure.

Let's hear what other say to this?

I don't remember the original rules, and I didn't study them for this project;
I just used the basics and made it more complicated. Mmuahahahahaaa!!!

We have a saying in southeastern USA. Let a sleeping dog lay. Just my 2 cents worth.

I shot down an aircraft with one bullet - well more than that were fired but only one hit! Shades of MvR it only takes one bullet.

Gentlemen, here is the first valuation chart!
It contains the latest data as I received them from Jim_Attrill, who was so kind to make
a calculation sheet, which we all can use for easy valuation (see post #1 towards the bottom).

To save space, the older charts will get deleted, when new ones arrive. So for everyone who'd
like to collect and keep them all: download them to your own files, pls.

To see full size, please click on the chart!

Some values will change still, as Jim and I have to decide on one more point.
Also, a unit has to be completed. I will exchange it, when it's ready.
