THAT ISN'T SO!
A plane rendered useless to fight, is a victory, even if it takes 10 min. for the plane to reach the place of its forced landing!
I, for my part, shot down 4 bombers and 1 fighter during one flight on the Atag-server with a Rotol-Hurri. One Bomber even lost a wing, but the last victory of that flight reached me well into my next flight.

Couldn't agree more. The good thing about Cliffs of Dover,is it rewards good piloting skills. Many a time I've nursed a badly mauled aircraft either back to base or to a outfield gear up landing. Usually using "crossed" controls and sympathetic use of throttle. I rarely "bail", if it still has some modicum of control, I'll stay with it. I get a great kick out of denying someone a kill.
