The ai engine never blows as he climbs and performance does not appear to be impaired while doing it?

Odd, in the default game (4.07?) I always feel that the autopilot does dive for the deck (or perhaps some low waypoint height), while over enemy territory, with a damaged or even stopped engine. If over enemy territory and with debatable power to reach the front line, climbing is what I will do if I can, so I stand a chance of gliding as near to home as I can, because the front line can move towards your base as well as away from it, and a MIA is a death in this game.
