quote: ORIGINAL: RangerJoe Just because you lose the plane does not mean that you lose the pilot. of course it doesn't mean you always lose the pilot but guess what's the ratio? Send 500 aircraft against a Deathstar, 20 return, how many pilots did you lose this single day?

How many pilots do you lose when you defend and the plane is lost?

Lose them over the enemy's turf, you lose 80% (Allied side with patrol aircraft and subs able to pick up survivors). Lose them over your own turf and you lose 20%. Very rough, rule of thumb stuff, but it seems to apply in sandbox play. I marvel at the number of messages the Japanese side gets in the Ops report about "Pilot Magoo has been found" or "Pilot Bluto escapes capture".

So at that ratio, for every month the Japanese could afford to lose about 1500 fighters over their own bases and not decrease their pilot numbers.
