Well in RL...they don't care if you bailed, ditched, or died. If the aircraft was put out of commission while it was flying it was a "kill". If I shot you up and you managed to put it down in a plowed field..it was a kill.
If you are interested in stats, it is better to stay alive then to die for stats purposes.
and the other question which comes to mind is what do I have to Bale? Straw, hay, pinestraw? Or can I just step over the side and bail?:)
Dobs, you say they counted it as a kill in RL just because the pilot said they think they hit the other guy! I don't think so. Think it required visual confirmation of going down--with or without pilot inside. . Also, for the record I'm not a stats freak!
In fact, if I crash due to a control problem, I will not ask for reset --unlike I see so many others do! A control problem is "your" problem and one does not deserve a reset. Like I'm just happy if I can complete the mission and this time it was worth trying to land anyway.
Again, thanks for the feedback.
Salute
