[QUOTE=Mogami]Hi, These numbers are from one of my PBEM games. The date is 11-24-42
I have lost a total of 23 B-17E so far.
I do not fly naval strikes or patrol with B-17. I also do not train the groups because they are already mostly trained. So these mission totals reflect
Port/Airfield/Ground attack missions. I escort the groups when possible.
In this game the Japanese are on Luganville and I have divided my B-17 between 3 airfields. Noumea, Tomo, and Efate. I have 145 B-17 on map and have lost 23. This is a 13.6 Percent loss rate.(23 of 168) (my mission rate is around .5 percent)(10 percent per mission for 13 full strength group would be 15.6 ac per mission. At my present strength it would be 14.5 ac per mission. )

I've lost 27 B17's so far.
I tend to use approximately half my B17's on search missions to train them up.
If I'm not intending to fly a bombing mission in the next few days I'll have all my b17's on approx 30-40% Naval Search.
I've lost a few (several?) B17's changing bases and 1 B17 flying Naval Search mission in thunderstorm.
Most (all?) B17 missions for this game shown below.
