I have noticed in a number of games that a rudder jam chit no longer ssems to have any effect. For instance, I just had "rudder jam left 3 turns" chit, but still had all the normal maneuvers enabled. In fact, I was able to fly straight anyway.
Was this a head on shot? If you were face to face with an enemy, then that is okay. What happens is that all tail damage goes to engine when you go head to head with enemy and he shoots at you. You should notice that the actual damage goes to the engine and the rudder jam results are ignored. I have had this happen to me a few times and this is correct and by the rules of the original Blue Max game.
