True, but when thinking through possible solutions, that was about the only one that came to mind. There is certainly no easy answer. 
the problem is you guys are trying to come up to with a solution to something that isnt really a problem. unless you expect me to believe that 90% of all the bombers bail out.
I once went up to about 28k and was able to catch some lancs and nailed 2 of them from a little more than 1k out with a 110. he never touched me and he bailed the last bomber and raged pm'd me. I understood his frustration as he never had a chance to defend himself. he took 2 or 3 times longer than I did to get to that altitude and it was for nothing.
whenever somebody complains about bombers bailing, I think about that guy, I bet he wished he had bailed out to deny me the kills. he was willing to fight and got none. just like you guys have broken contact with a bomber basically because he had kicked your buttt and now want to land somewhere to deny him a kill. I have had my share of more than a few fighters that I damaged pretty bad and they were able to land or ditch and I got nothing.
now to be fair to the bomber guys then ask for a rule something along the lines that if you get within 6k of one and he bails than you get a kill. on the other hand if you get within 6k and break contact to more than 6k for whatever reason, for more than a couple of minutes then he gets a kill and you die. make it a rule so it's only above 20k. hey you climbed to fight, didnt ya. then you fight until one is dead.
