an efficiency rating for the team, total number of kills
for the team, and total flight time logged.
Each pilot created is assigned a squadron of computergenerated
characters upon creation. This page keeps track
only of information about that computer-generated squad.
It will not reflect any information about any live players you
may fly with during multi-player missions.
VIEW MEDALS Left-click on the box to the left to view medals you’ve
earned. As you progress in the campaign, you’ll receive
medals and campaign ribbons. Right-click in the medals
screen to see the names of all of the medals.
EXIT Close the locker.
Once you create a pilot and save your progress, this pilot remains active. (Only
one pilot can be active at once.) Whoever was flying the last sortie is the default
pilot when you resume the game.
♦ Left-click on the locker door (at the left-hand side of the screen) to close the locker.
♦ Left-click on the door or on the active pilot’s flight bag to exit the Bunkhouse.
You can now fly this pilot in any mission.
Pilot Careers
Every mission you fly logs hours for the active
pilot and adds points to his/her cumulative
score. Single or Campaign missions all get
recorded on the pilot’s stat sheet. (Instant
Action missions, however, do not.) If you die in
any mission, the active pilot will not be available
for future missions, unless you re-fly the
mission and survive.
Once you’ve accumulated enough points, flown enough missions, or met some
other condition, you’ll find new ribbons and medals in your pilot’s locker.
Deleting a Pilot
Once you create a pilot, that locker is occupied until the pilot is dead, captured or
deleted. If you die or are captured during a mission and choose to save your
progress at that point, a yellow ribbon and flag appear in the locker. The ribbon
and flag remain there until you create a new pilot in that locker.
Switching the Active Pilot
To resume another pilot’s career, left-click on the flight helmet of the pilot you want to
use. A flight bag will appear in the top portion of the locker — left-click on it to return
to the overhead Base view. Now, missions you fly will be saved to that pilot’s record.
