Have you flown the Hurricane with half a wing missing? It's not exactly easy.

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.
