    The survival bias diagram you usually see for this is not necessarily for a single plane but for a number of them and aggregated into the diagram you’re familiar with.

      Also, this was for planes that returned home. IE they could still fly.
      If they were hit like that on the ground, they would probably be written off. Cause it would be an unknown possible death sentence.
