Enough already! 2/3 of my flights in the last few months I end up with a PW.
And in a D9 I should not be getting Pilot wounds from bbs at 1000+ out from a pure 6 shot.
Don't have any facts to back me up on this, but I would venture a guess that in a fighter, less than 2 or 3 % of fighter sorties had pilot wounds! Ever see any films of figher sorties ending with oil all over windshield? I haven't and I bet I have seen most of them over the years. An engine hit doesn't always cover the windshield with oil.
The same cannot be said of the bomber crews, as if they were attacked and did manage to get home, some of the crew was wounded most times, sometimes pilot and co-pilot, but I bet the times that both were wounded would also be very little. Something is wrong with the "box" as some have called it, but don't know anything can be done about it.
One that gets me is when a LA7 rams me from front and I am in a jug and he flies off, not even smoking and I have oil all over windshield and 1/2 of a wing gone! I also agree with the "6" shot when in a jug! The thing had armor plating a 1/2 inch thick! Deflection shots from 10-2-4-6 relative, OK, but straight on and straight "6" shots, I don't think so!!
