A 737 on the way to Rotterdam airport where it crashed in fog due to bad visibility and completely unhelpful Air Traffic Controllers...

Nah, it crashed not because of weather and ATC, it crashed because the cheeseheads shot it down! You must punish them at once with an extensive bombing campaign against major population centers and windmills.

We will prevail for as long as we have cheese.

Still my favourite liner, the 737.

One of my very few successes in WWI combat - I'm not exactly a competent airman. Things don't look too good for the SE5a pilot, who's visible above his aircraft on the left hand side.

Some heavy damage there. Did you have time to bail out or did your pilot die before ground impact?

I haven't gotten so far as to check what's the eject key.

I think it's "CTRL + E".

Just to make sure; it is combat damage right? Not some horrific start-up accident.

What is this "start-up" you are talking off?

There's some damage to the airframe itself other than the burning engines, must be combat damage.

A panel is missing on the nose, damage on the the tailfin, a missing wing, left gear is missing.

You underestimate the potential to fail at start-up and take-off.
