It's been tried it sucked
Now that's an answer to my liking! Nothing rivals experience.

Someone might try to argue that the players have changed since then. No they haven't. They're still human beings.

My apology to Hitech before I suggest this.

Hitech have you ever thought of posting a sticky of all the ideas that are a no go, or have been tried and canceled by you due to it's bad impact on the game?

Knowing this community that would be a stinker of an idea. Then the usual Robespierre's would whip up the usual lynch mobs to demand you implement every single bad idea on your list so they can be the expert judges of how your game should work.

I look at it this way.  Winning a fight is important.  Dying isn't.

Ok, for those of you challenged by reading comprehension... HOW WOULD YOU CARTOON FLY YOUR CARTOON RIDE, OR DRIVE YOUR CARTOON VEHICLE, OR CARTOON BOAT?  IF YOU HAD BUT ONE CARTOON LIFE TO LIVE, BE IT PER CARTOON DAY, OR PER CARTOON HOUR.

There, big letters and everything.

The chest thumping on 200 would go way way down if this were the case.   People fly recklessly because they know they can get another airplane...
Some fly recklessly because we like a fight...and talking crap on 200 normally gets people hunting me...makes it easier to find a fight.

This is a combat game not a playing tag game. We have enough p51 and 190 pilots that runs. I agree with what AKAK said.

Tumor, I don't know what your looking for here. I and most like me would fly/drive like our CARTOON life depended on it. People would only engage when they held all the advantages and disengage when they felt they were losing those advantages. It would make for very boring  fights as most would make a single pass and haul donut !

Ding Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner.
Thats exactly what happened.

As I have stated before, when you make not dieing so important the way to not die and win is not to play.

You were given your answer but apparently not the one you wanted.
