Online, I don't care.

Offline, dead should be dead. I don't enjoy it, but there is nothing to be done so the black screen from the cockpit is about right. I don't think it should happen so often, the as I understand it the Spitfire and Hurricane had bulletproof windscreens, and in the BoB at least the German bomber gunners had guns of a calibre less than 8mm, but when it does happen, it should be the black screen or something very like it.

The pilots of the i16 are shown with oxygen masks. In the Biggles books (I'd read the lot by the age of 13, okay?) the limit for flying without oxygen in WW1 was given as 18,000 ft. With oxygen, it would be the limits of the plane, which would depend on superchargers etc.
