Pilot career.

Ziptop's Photo Ziptop 30 Mar 2020

I've requested this before, I'm (sort of) going to request it again. 

 

Pilot careers. - attach pilot aircraft history and medals won by that pilot to their info? 

It's purely cosmetic really but an overview of all the planes they have ever qualified to fly and the medals/awards you won with them as pilot would just add a little character depth for me. 

Yes.. I know that it's really me that won the medals but...

 

Also, not sure if it's already visible but can you see what aircraft you were flying when the various medals were won?

Nope, only the type and number of medals won with a given plane are shown, no details. Also some achievements are recorded only once per each plane, repeat feats are not counted. Yeah, my OCD made me check that long ago... I second the idea, it's a nice way to 'personalize' pilots. That said, once you have 250+ pilots in your hangar, the only ones standing out are those with a lot of points or the unique pilots; there's just too many to keep track...

I must be strange. I have favorite pilots.

No no, digital sympathies and digital romancing is considered normal these days, especially if you're Korean or Japanese. Or both. Or a weeb. Also I hear many teenagers are affected. Anyway, I understand :)

I don't.

 

Whenver I pick the 110E, I hear stuff like: "You forgot to turn right here. No - the other right, dear...", "Do you have to fly that fast?", "Mind that bomber over there", "I've just cleaned the plane, so no coffee/beer/whatever in the cockpit", "The flight stick...? I threw it out because it took up too much space...also got rid of the throttle control...why do you look at me that way??", "My sister, her stupid husband and their 9 kids will be flying with us for the entire weekend..."

:teethhappy:

I hate you people.  Whenever I start sniggering, She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed asks what's so funny... you try explaining this thread to someone who's already fed up with me after only 7 days 'shielding'.

Shame on you! This is base, this is ultrasexist, this is misogynist in extreme! We of the WAAF are not exactly thrilled by this sort of attitude, making our everyday sacrifice all that more difficult! However, what you said about the sister with the stupid husband, and their undoubtedly horrible 9 kids - now this... this makes... well, ok, you may proceed. Gently, but proceed. She deserves it. I mean, did I tell you about that time when she invited aunt Christine for dinner, and then set out crumpled table sheets? And then served potatoes that - oh nevermind, I can see you're not even listening anymore, as usual. You must not love WAAFs anymore. Typical male....

Typical male....Three     You should have to  decorate three of your favorite planes with the International Womens Day patch for chauvinistic sexism ! :B

There is a special emblem for chauvinistic sexism? Wait, I thought MOST of the emblems and nose art were for that....

 

(that said, at least one of my lady pilots does fly the Womens Day emblem on every plane I put her in....I'm waiting for a cute bunny with fluffy ears for the others)

I demand naked men on Ziptop's planes immediately !

 

Also, a giant cucumber with a Kaiser moustache on Apartclassic's I-16-29 (as a token of empathy towards the enemy team)

There do appear to be quite a few ladies that play this game (I'm not one though) so therefore I agree that there should be some artwork that strikes a balance. Bring forth the cheeky nose art featuring buff chaps in swimwear! 

 

While we are at it. More cute fluffy animals too.

I second that: Sorry for taking part in derailing the topic.

...although several entries made me smile/laugh...

 

I also support the idea.
