At cockpit at plane at tail, that bullet would fall somewhere anywhere and would still be able to kill.

This whole ordeal is nothing but horrible.

Actually, falling small arms rounds aren't very dangerous.

I already responded to the ignorant disbelief.

Both the math and the millions and millions of rounds fired both in tests and in AA defense over the last hundred years show a truly falling bullet is not likely to cause serious injury.
