Re: Maj. Georg-Peter Eder-17 times shot down

Define 'shot down'? If you have the opportunity to peruse a flew logbooks I think you'll find that almost every pilot had his share of engine failures, radiator failures, undercarriage failures, light damage from enemy groundfire but returned safely to base, etc., etc. - some caused by combat some not - do these incidents count as being 'shot down'?
