How often do you get shot down on average during a game or scenario?
Too often
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Far too often, especially one of my Two Seaters in Solo Campaign Games.
Whenever my concentration goes, which is more frequent the older I get.

Like bombers & dive bombers for WGS and underdog scouts for WGF, so the answer is: very often.
Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
I just started BGS, and carnage is already happening to me. No 'Boom Cards', but '+' damage draws can be almost as deadly.

More often than not and more often than I'd like !
I usually fly a (captured) N.17 & sometimes 12 damage doesn't get you very far...

i was torn between "often" and "very often". i mean, its not that i dont frequently shoot others down, but i seem to have some pretty bad luck, especially when it comes to the boom card. at origins this last year i didnt just get shot down, but recieved the dreaded boom card somewhere between 16-18 times !!!!!
Not very often - but only because I run away far more than most. Pilot wounded, engine hit, or half damage and I will nearly always decamp to fight another day. If you count those as shootdowns, then about 50%.
Too bloody often.
School kids....novices...or both usually.
See you on the Dark Side......
If you are not getting shoot down often or more you are not playing the game enough.

As often as I make a mistake and put myself right in front of the other guys guns.
I think one of the choices should be 'every chance I get' because that certainly seems to be my record! Unless we are playing a scenario where it behooves one to make a run for it and survive...
All the best,
Matt

All the bloody time, lol especially by kids at shows
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
Seems like a daily occurrence, to be honest. Probably doesn't help that I'm a fire magnet.
Judging by my personalised pilot in the OTT campaigns way to often

Coming down is the hardest thing

Not sure we should not have an option to this poll.
How often do you burn down?

Frequently I am shot down because I end up going 'head to head' with another plane but I also seem to have a lot of collisions.
Pretty much every game, mostly because of taking too much damage, sometimes the explosions get me though.
Only when I take off...learned if I stay in the officers club I get shot down less often...except for the nurses...sigh
Very amusing Ken.
Now about your nurses.......

How often do I get shot down, hmm I can only say... stewpid game
I seam to be a bomm card magnet! Also depends what I am flying Camels are ok rarely get shot down, but some two seaters like the RE8 every time!
Should there not be a With alarming Frequency option, closely followed in my case by Stupid game.
How often do you get shot down? Yes.
Only when I fly.

I get shot down a lot. If you look into real life of WWI the average life of a pilot was not very good. If you go to fight, you will take hits and will most likely be shot down eventually. If you don't want shot down just fly around outside.
