What I like about comparing this to war, is that sometimes you become an Ace before you die. I have yet to see anyone get 40 kills before going down, let alone 80, in Blue Max. We are not as good at this as some of them were at the real thing.
Not only that, but games tend to be much deadlier than reality. For instance, I play a B-17 game. (World War II) Typical squadron losses are running about 20% *per mission*. Which is significantly more than even the bloodiest exceptional real life missions, like Schweinfurt.
It would be pretty boring to play a combat game where only 1 in 10 was killed or injured. If you read about the Sioux Indian battles it was closer to 1 in 20 or less, if I remember correctly.
