So, if the aircraft is burning the pilot has no ability to do anything but barbeque or baill out.

Depends where the fire is. If it's on a wingtip or the tail, maybe fighting on was possible. There were bombers that made it back to base after fires (I'm sure I read about that).

You are both an A and a B...the B only because of the point system in game. Had that been a real war battle, you would be the hero. Sleep well tonight, you're OK

well they question you have to ask your self is were try to save your mate or were you after the points.
If you were after the points then it a steal kill'
But if you are trying to save your mate butt then "blast away"

and in those 5 seconds he can nail the red guy.

seems funny though, i often see dewinged planes that are still considered targets by some in SoV.

We do verbal claims - and generally both pilots would claim the kill.

As the pilot being shot at, I appreciate it if someone blows the guy off my tail.
As the pilot being "stolen" from, I feel a little cheated.
As the pilot doing the shooting, I feel virtuous.
