Has happened to me too, although not in a perk.

I landed on a runway far within our side and with no enemy in sight.. I think I already even stoped the plane.

All of the sudden there was a boom and straight to tower. A player got awarded for the kill, but when asked he wasn't anywhere close to the point (and I wasn't damaged by him either.)

Must be a bug in the code.

Too bad you don't have a film of it. I've seen a mystery death like that before. No one around, brand new fresh plane, BOOM, "you have been killed". No one got awarded a kill for it. Who knows?

Sucks you lost a 262 like that.:(

Its the budding "rise of the machines". Only a symptom. They're testing there power by screwing with us.

Its like the pilot wounded syndrome. You black out now and then, but when you get a 1/4 mile off the end of the runway, drop gear, slow down...invariably you black out again.

I haven't had a disco in over a month, I get 5 kills in a Ta152, done with the mission, turn for home...guess what? DISCO!

Hammy, that avatar/smiley might be considered bad taste...

Didn't stop me from laughing until I cried though :D

It wasn't a bug.  It was a realistic simulation of sabotage by the slave laborers at the Messerschmitt factory.  Its a feature, and a very realistic interpretation of war-time conditions. :p
