I'm actually not too against experienced Kerbals giving bonuses to thrust, fuel efficiency, etc. It fits perfectly in with the game. Kerbals are brave, bold, but incompetent and a little crazy, explorers. I would regard this as already having a malus effect on the stats as they are, and as the Kerbals become more experienced, they make less mistakes and get closer to the true potential of the craft. I feel like that's a plausible enough explanation for what could be a fun game mechanic.

This could actuallya be valuable in career mode, as it could be used to test conditions too risky for Kerbals. It is how many space programs started....

I haven't landed anywhere really. I have mostly been playing with space stations. I've had a few rough landings on Mun.

My apologies if this belongs in the challenge forum, but it wasn't a challenge in itself, so I wasn't entirely sure if it belonged there. I'm fairly new to the game, so I feel that many of the challenges are beyond my skill level. I thought it would be interesting if some of the veteran players made a simple series of challenges to introduce newer players to challenges as well as guide them to different things to try and share ideas on how to do them. For example, one of them could be the fuel efficiency to Kerbin Orbit challenge, and others could be challenges involving the lightest craft to land 2 Kerbals on a certain object or whatnot. It would put beginners in challenges where they could feel competitive, and also put them in a position where veteran players could offer pointers without the players having to ask a specific question
