missing info Burning aircraft keep flying

[Gasman63]

Has anyone else noticed that nothing seems to happen to burning aircraft? I was shot down by a  109 that was on fire and just kept flying, so then I tried this myself. I've been able to just keep flying and if necessary land aircraft that are on fire (which of course then denies the kill). This is clearly unrealistic and means that you cannot just leave an aircraft once on fire and assume that it will go down.

So today tried another experiment. Was attacking B-17s in a 109 and was set on fire at 8Km. Continued flying back to base with the 109 on fire. Nothing happened. When it ran out of fuel from the leaks, the fire stopped and I started gliding.

We need tracks of this, it could be some sort of weird MP desync, it could be something else. Without a track, I cannot see what happened.
