i need your take on this scenario anon. Imagine that you were a combatant in ww1 and suddenly the fighting stops because the viscount of shropshire and günther von wilmersdorf is gonna have an air duel in their rinky tinky planes (pic related). would you A) cringe. B) think it was actually kinda based because that means you got a breather from all the horrors of war (you are a selfish little fuck). Or C) think that it's not over and that the west is actually back (you see the parallels between the air duel and honourable and tradcath pilled medieval jousting. Thus you cannot hide your inner chud from your fellow company members any longer and as a result you give them the ick). Now wich one would YOU choose
bababooey howard stern
A and then B of courseOr would you rather charge a machine gun nest or sit in artillery fire?
>>225524410The actual dogfights were no hold barred. Pilots used every trick and guile to kill each other. However, once the opponent is disabled or crashing/crashed, most pilots of the era will let them go. No one did one on one duels. In fact, standard tactic is to gang up on an enemy.
>>225527861Yeah basically all the veteran pilots would travel in wolf packs and just rape any beginner pilot who didn't know what they were doing. They'd approach from the sun so the pilot couldn't even see them lol. Your odds of dying as a new pilot were astronomically high, and from there the odds get better as you learn the ropes
>>225524410D)kill them because i'm cooler and got a better plane
>>225524410That’s a British plane tho t. Expert
