in a different CTA game with just 1 other person, we were playing around and both landed... the other plane drives up and the tip of our wings touched and we both exploded.

I've had the prop thing 4 or 5 times.. I had to bail out on the ground to get back in the game. I deffo hit the prop into the ground on one landing but not the others.

Did your chute open in time?

This probably happens in other matches, but I usually only play CTA, so...

Every now and then, I get lucky. I sink a rocket in to someone. I jump for joy, it's always fun to hit someone with a rocket. The rocket explodes, hitting them directly. But...they emerge from the fire, still flying, and not dead.

I don't mean on the runway. Hitting them in the air. There's no way it exploded close to them and just didn't hit. It was a full on hit, and no damage at all.

Are you sure they're in range? Rockets explode after a short time whether they hit something or not... It could look like it hit, but it actually explodes before it reaches them?

I've actually had this same thing happen to me not in BoP but in 1946. I don't know what the problem is on either game.
