Number of flights for Alliance missions

[Hisiendil]

Hello everybody,
Sorry if I missed the answer to my question, but I could not find it in the old threads.
I always noticed, that I have always one mission task every week with 200 or even 300+ flights. I know it might be possible to reach and others also do have this challenge, but as I see all the others in my alliance each week I’m the one with the most flights required, most other members only need to fligh lower than 100 each plane type.

So this gets me thinking that something must be influencing this number as the number of planes is influencing the task selection. Is there anything known to influence the number of required flights?

Thanks in advanced

It is based on your player level. The higher your level, the more fuel required for the mission, and thus the higher number of flights.
(This is based on empirical data I collected and analyzed)

If you don't like graphs, here is a giant table with the estimated number of flights:

HOLY COW, Jenn! Amazing stats!!! Does the B in your name stand for BRILLIANT?!? Nicely done!

Oh wow, I wasn’t expecting such a great answer. That totally makes sense from the data, especially as the issue only appears with the third task as shown with your statistics
Really great piece of work, thanks a lot
