but the presumption for us virtual pilots has to be that we also start out by using the correct historical equipment that recreates their respective strength and weakness. once that is the case, then you can start adding in pilots kill level, degree of surprise, and a whole host of other variables

my argument is that we need to be given open and accurate information from luthier and Co as to what they have modeled, so we can compare it with the factual historical information people here can obtain themselves (and thrash out issues by debating t with others who have done the same). in 2012 it is not acceptable to "just pretend your plane is right" and whatever happens "he/she was just a better pilot".
