The way collisions work, changed?

A P-38 sneaks up behind you and you go down.  That's it. 

You really think you went down because his plane collided with you???

How do you know "he's fine"?  He didn't die, but is he undamaged?  Unless you PM'd him and compared notes, you're just speculating.

Yes, He did admit the overshoot and was just as confused as I was. I admit, I should of been filming but luckily we were both cool on the situation. Its not a whine..just wasnt clear on exactly happens. It was simplified to me as "if you see it on your screen..you get the msg" and yes he did admit to flying off unscaved.

Kazaa one more possibility... if you're in a tater plane and shoot a guy too close (somewhere within 30yds or so) you will receive shrapnel damage from your own tater.  I'm sure you already know this but just reminding you.
