This way the person who shot the plane down would know he's not comming back, and the one who was shot down has a reasonable reason to explode.

I really don't like any of these suggestions. To me it would be WAY more exciting if it didn't explode. What's cooler: a car crash the is shattering and has a million pieces or the cheesy Hollywood explosion as soon as the cars touch each other? This game is a sim and a plane should not explode if it TOUCHES the ground. It's even worse when you crash into water: it shows that far off view and the plane just looks juxtaposed onto the water, it doesn't look IN the water... I would much rather they just keep it in the pilot's seat and let you see the water splash around you... I don't like the lack of crash-landings AT ALL!
