I was in a B-17 the other day and a Yak fired a 37mm from 3.0K away and killed my tail gunner. Before that happened I woulda never thought that a 37mm round would reach that far.

It doesn't.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

Can you explain how the tail gunner got killed? He was firing from 3.0k and I'm thinkin' "ya , go ahead, waste that ammo". Then bam, my tail gunner is dead.

Lag? Are you sure there wasn't another plane? Film?

Could've been manned gun ack, which goes out to 4K IIRC.
Otherwise, there's no way a Yak-9T can reach out that far.
1.5K is where bullets disappears on airplanes.

Only exception is the B25H.

Which would back his story up,  you saw 600ish, he saw 1k-ish.   Lag makes lucky shots all the more amazing sometimes

that would be joeblack most likely  :D

I know you don't believe in the effects of lag on AH and all, but it doesn't matter what "you" see as far as tracers or your enemy's orientation, if he sees rounds hit, you take damage.  Even if on your screen, he is facing the opposite direction of you, if his computer sees him having a solution, he has one.

Had this happening to me earlier with 4Fox.  In my ride he had no shot but was hitting me while his nose was well away from having an angle.

I can confirm that this happened.  I was online with Grizz at the time.  I figured he'd whine about it.  He just said, "Oh well, that sucks" or something along those lines...

Do not get caught up in the country-centric thinking.

I was at 18k and there were no other aircraft around. I wish I had been rolling film but was not. Manned ack is 37mm IIRC.
