Hi.

Have lots of KIA's without aircraft listed as damaged - thus aircraft damage less than 10%.

So you can have all variants from aircraft not even listed to 100% damage to the aircraft for a KIA pilot.

Regards,
Andreas B

I guess it is a joke, by reading the above: "The pilot was killed at 100%."

I don't doubt that CJE understood well that the 100% applied to the aircraft, not the pilot
