He gained 6 points for flying in 6 turns, got 4 points for the one shot he took, and lost half his points for a non-home exit. I see smoke as well. Stop complaining about a heavily played game (Blue Max) on a free site (YouPlayIt) that much. If the problem is really a bug, someone would have pointed it long ago. Although all of us want some special changes, the odd of getting them put in is not that good since the webmaster (Nick) is hosting this site as a not for profit hobby. Enjoy it the way it is or make your own. Just make sure you don't violate the trademarks.
I think edwardlaneuk is referring to an earlier turn (Turn 8). When I've checked the game a few hours ago, they were still on turn 9, so by using "previous positions" button I could see turn 8: Johnnym3453 was in the same hex as two other planes and his smoke was not diplayed, so I think the bug is present as reported.
I don't see edwardlaneuk as complaining, he just stated a little bug hoping to improve the game. Obviously this is just a very minor bug, so I understand that people who know that bug-fixing activity here is "on limited free time only" might see reporting such a minor bug as an "unnecessary/unuseful complain".
Anyway, I personally think that having all bugs reported is a good thing, even minor ones. Obviously if there's isn't enough time to work on the code, minor bugs will be skipped in favour of big ones, but that's a decision to make *after* they have been added to the bug list, I think 
So thanks to edwardlaneuk for reporting the bug, but do not expect it to be fixed soon
