It looks like heavy damage to the plane's fuselage and inner wings, but no concentrated hits on any vital part of the plane.
If you really want to know where your bullets go, and what effect they're having on your target, play using Arcade mode. To set it up, edit your conf.ini file so that Arcade=1.
Once it's set up, any bullet that hits its target will show as a big arrow stuck through the plane, and any cannon shell that hits will show a "star" of arrows. If you inflict serious damage on your target, you'll see a cartoon "thought bubble" over the plane when it suffers a crew hit or critical or fatal damage. It's a very good training aid to improve your deflection shooting.
