...I said when my pe-2 went down for the 10th time in the same way - first explosiun of flak nearby, then the pilot's cry - and that's it - all controls are stuk and plane crashed...

i-16 - same situation with resisting to gunfire from bf109...

yak-3 - crash landing with gear-up - pilot killed - but plane NOT crashed...

What's happening - after I installed patch 1.5.2?

That's likely it. When you're dead you can't fly.

Based on what I've heard, you're experiencing the "pilots are too weak now" problem. Apparently, when they fixed a certain problem with the patch, it brought to light the fact that the pilots were too weak and died at the drop of a hat. Other more knowledgable folks will have to explain further.

The work around in 1.5.2.9 is to turn off the last three General Options (Disable Crewpos Radius, Use Bullet Penetration, and Use Alt Explosions). This should stop your pilot from dying if he so much as blinks!

xomer,

This is a known issue with the patch. The pilots no can be killed, but it just seems a little too easy. I believe this is being looked into by the patch team. Hopefully, patch version 1.5.2.10 will improve the pilot damage.

Xomer,

Learn to fly... avoid flak shells and don't let an enemy fighter set position in your six! ;p

Just kidding you.
