Attack Plane - Flare Drop & Wing Damaged Points Bug

Product: Battlefield 1
Platform:PC
Summarize your bug If you are in an attack plane, land it, and get out, flares will automatically deploy even though you didn't press 3 to drop flares. When you go back in the flares are still loaded. It's also not your hand spot flares. They magically appear and you will take damage from it if you get hit. This does not happen if you bail from the plane in the air. Also, if you shoot at your plane, it will take damage and you will get points for damaging wings. This will mean that players can achieve points and medals / assignments easily by simply landing the plane.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get the ground support attack plane and land it. Get out. Shoot at your attack plane's tail or wings.
What happens when the bug occurs? Flares will deploy when you get out of your landed plane. When you shoot the attack plane's wings / tail, you will get wing damaged points.
Please select your region North America

    @XTRA-Larsiano The Safe Bail specialization should only come into effect if you're in mid-air.

    The Cloud Cover specialization has to do with reduced spotting times, so that one's not it.

    So, it appears that the Safe Bail specialization is bugged, as it doesn't take into account a landed plane.
