Could a civilized protocol to make enemy aircraft surrender like ground troops can surrender to limit loss of life be made?

Awful post but it made me wonder if pilots are less likely to surrender (honor culture bs) but more likely to defect when the war is shifting sides (higher IQ, moar smart)

bomber crews should have been tried by a war tribunal for mass war crime and all hanged

Usually you'll eject (if you survived) and then presto you're now "ground troops" and can surrender normally. I don't know how that is even a question.

Once they have been shot down? Has nothing to do with IQ or honor or whatever, the fact is you're one guy, probably hurt, hundreds of miles behind enemy lines with a pistol you shoot once a year. You try to evade but if you're cornered you're going to surrender because you have 0 chance of winning a gunfight.

Civilians are going the way of the knight as relics of a bygone era of flower war. Your fancy title has been tested against the might of explosives, and found wanting.
