As I read further about the levels of experience reached by 'Pilots' arriving in France etc, from England,he found very little experience within the new people. One had only taxied around. the books I have are ' The Royal Flying Corps in WWI & 'On a Wing and a Prayer' + various bits and pieces if info garnered from far and wide.
With this in mind I wonder how you all arrive at your pilots levels of experience. How do they become Aces?.
So, I'm looking at forming my squadron from a mix of ....Novice....Pilot....Experienced....Expert and an Ace is one who gains the requisite number of kills.
The minimum of flights to move up a grade as under
Novice....4 learning how to read the ground etc. with two being missions over enemy lines.
Pilot.......6
Experienced....8
Expert............10
As the fliers upgrade they become able to use more and better manoeuveres and hopefully this is how one becomes an Ace.
I would love some comments on my ideas. Also better ideas than mine
