I've had this happen to me a couple of times. Flying it back to base is very difficult and you have no possibility to do any real evasive moves without going into a spin. Attacking anything other than a target that is unaware or unable/unwilling to evade is pretty much impossible.
Plenty of real planes took damage like this and flew back home if enough of the wing was left to create lift on that side.
I find the exploding 109 thing far more frustrating from a DM point of view. I watched a 109 explode not once, but TWICE and keep flying along and evading and ATTACKING.

I believe you. But I've seen the entire scene of the wingless Hurry (about 50% of the wing) from a very close position
. It was quite unrealistic, the plane didn't oscillate a bit, it looked very stable, she did an almost perfect turn and glided back towards base. I didn't finish her on purpose - I love posing as a gentle knight
. By the way I had the same experience on a 109, I was able to fly her back and ditch without half a wing.
