Yea, and if you had your way.. we'd all be speaking german... gotta take the less of two evils. I'm guessing you're not the thrill seeking type of surfer hippie.

Ha! That is kinda funny, but I honestly think Richtofen could fly an F-22. He might not fly it very well, at least not without some instruction, but he could certainly get it off the ground. As complex as a modern fighter is it still boils down to throttle, stick, rudder and attitude.

The person I would most like to have as my wingman would be my good friend Patrick Leach. He was killed while flying Apaches in Iraq in 2004, I would dearly love to fly with him again. War sux.

What a ridiculous statement that is to make. So I'm a German Nazi now am I? If I had to dogfight in order to save my family or protect my country then of course I would do it ( given the training obviously). I would not however want to dogfight or kill aother person for no other reason than to experience it, as I'm not an idiot and neither do I relish the thought of taking a life. If it were in a simulator then I wouldn't care who I were up against as I know I will live to see another day.

Your right though I'm not a hippie type, although I love to surf and have done plenty of thrill seeking in my life time

In a simulated dogfight, I'd love to go up against Saburo Sakai with him in a later model zero and me in a La-5 or La-7.

I think one of the most challenging fights would be versus Ilmari Juutilainen, the Finnish ace. He had 94 kills, 34 of them in a Brewster Buffalo. He spent pretty much his entire career fighting superior aircraft and winning anyways. Like Richthofen said, "It's not the machine, it's the man". (Or something to that effect anyway)

Another great fight would be the 25 or so highest scoring WWI aces in their personal planes vs me in a Pitts Special Armed with miniguns, lol!

But in a real dogfight I'd go with winny's idea. It'd be incredibly easy and satisfying, lol!

I imagine the conversation just before that pic was taken went something along the lines of.. "Now George, we're taking you outside for a picture next to a jet.. try and look like you've been near one before.. Under no circumstances must you get in it and try to fly it.. we have someone who'll do all your flying for you we just need some proof that it was you.. Daddy's got big plans for you"
