With respect to honor, are we suppose to let a crippled plane fly off the map then?
No, if I blew your engine off I can honorably dispose of you at my will.
What about a plane with no guns left?
You can honorably fly off the map
from your side Anyhow have a look at the final chapter of the rules:
http://www.youplay.it/play/bm_GameRules.asp
Retiring with Honor:
In some cases, retiring is not a dishonorable decision, especially after a tough fight. If your plane is in one of the following condition, and you exit the map from the correct side, you'll be considered honorable:
1) Almost without fuel, with less than 3 fuel left in your tank,
2) Without engine, i.e. engine completely destroied
3) Having all your guns destroyed.
The rationale of "correct side" is that German lines are on the right and Allied ones on the left. And you cannot escape towards enemy line.
Furthermore, in the original board game the map was scrolling up and down, thus being boundless. For technical reasons this does not apply here on youplay, so it has been settled that it is not honorable to escape from the upper or lower side (since you cannot escape this way in the boardgame).
