A question for Russ

Hi Russ,

In a post in another thread on Oct 29 you presented some interesting statistics about how many Jasta 11 pilots were shot down in total. That is, while 17 pilots lost their lives, there were at least 59 occasions, and possibly more, when aircraft were destroyed, forced down or crash landed. This would imply over 3 'shoot downs' for each KIA. I'm curious if it would be a reasonable assumption that this ratio applied more generally to all Jastas.
