Last night I flew a long B-17G mission and on the return leg I came under attack by enemy fighters, losing my #2 and #3 engines, the tail turret, a waist gun, the right flap and both remaining fuel tanks punctured. I had ~20 minutes of fuel left at cruise revs when the fighters attacked. Once the fight began I went to full power. After the fight was over I had 13,000ft of altitude left when the engines quit due to lack of fuel, so I decided to try to glide to safety.
After it became apparent that I would not be able to glide to the base I bailed out of the #1 bomber. The #2 bomber's damage list was identical to the #1 bomber's list and it had no fuel. So I bailed out and into the #3 bomber. The #3 bomber had no damage listed, but also had no fuel. I was unable to get any of the bombers to the base.

Been wondering that too. When its fixed, I'll consider re-upping my subscription ;)

It transfers from drones to the lead plane too. The other night I set fire to a Lanc's Rt. wing on the #3 drone. The #2 drone was already dead. I stood off and watched, when #3 exploded the fire immediately jumped to the lead Lanc's right wing. A minute or so later he blew up too.

I agree that it is an annoying bug.
But not as annoying as this!:D
Climb to 20K in Lancs to heavily defended large base.
Make a perfect drop to knock out 4 fhs on large pad.
Make a careful manual turn and set up for angle on 3 fhs on small pad, gauging distances and SA to fighters IB
Make another calibration
Drop at perfect angle & hop into top gun to intercept 190 diving in.
You forget that bombs will not detonate if you fire from gunners position before impact - after you fire guns to protect yourself.
Gawd I hope this bug gets fixed!
