Sorry ramster, your plane's been disabled via big freaking wrench, and crew sentiment is to push it out the belly hatch post-haste. Hope you can use that thing as a kite.<br/><br/>Edit: Regarding How bulletproof a plane's canopy is.<br/><br/>A plane's canopy WILL stop a pistol round. A .38 will flatten out and leave an ugly dimple. a .455 webley will leave a big set of spiderweb cracks. A .303 or 30-06 Rifle WILL penetrate, because that's the same ammo used in the .30 calibre MGs the planes use. Anything Bigger WILL penetrate.<br/><br/>Edit 2: Current combat status.<br/><br/>One Defender is out of range and fleeing fast.<br/><br/>Major-Major has a kill count of one for cutting one Defender's wing off; the pilot bailed out successfully, but hit the parachute in the clouds.<br/><br/>Dashenka has a confirmed damage; a second burst would be a definite kill, as the Defender she shot up lost both of its .50 calibre guns and has both a bent crankshaft and destroyed oil sump; The engine will sieze within minutes and the plane can be brought down in an unpowered landing.<br/><br/>The aerial torpedo is destroyed, with moderate damage to Reiji's Raven (front landing gear, and even more scratches and scrapes to the right wing), and Minor damage to Alysanthia's Devastator (Outboard Port gun jammed from the shockwave, will automatically clear after 30 seconds, damage to left rudder is trying to force the plane to turn left at approximately 5 degrees per second (So it would take 72 seconds to do a complete circle; just mean leaning on the control stick a little, and 20 minutes with a hammer once the battle is over)<br/><br/>The last Defender took a potshot at Alysanthia, but missed; He's closing between Aly's Devastator and Reiji's Raven, With Major's Avenger coming up from below. Unless otherwise directed, I will assume that all three planes will fire as their weapons come to bear with minor (or moderate) maneuvers.
