S!

I fly German planes because they are my favorites, in many areas technically more advanced than any Allied counterpart at the time. There are no political issues or glorification behind it. Of course Bf109 is one of my favs because Finnish Air Force flew them with very good results during the decisive moments of our nation's history, after talking to those who flew them too..like Kyösti Karhila, Günther Rall etc.

IMO a more serious simmer is also very keen in history, capable of seeing things in a neutral way. Not letting emotions take over but seeing the war as it was: a brutal phase of our not so glorious human history filled with violence and killing. Times change, human nature not..always driven by greed and warmongering.
