Nine G's Is Good, If The Pilot

Flying Is More Than A Sport And More Than A Job; Flying Is Pure Passion And Desire, Which Fill A Lifetime.

The First Rule Of All Air Combat Is To See The Opponent First. Like The Hunter Who Stalks His Prey And Maneuvers Himself Unnoticed Into The Most Favourable Position For The Kill, The Fighter In The Opening Of A Dogfight Must Detect The Opponent As Early As Possible In Order To Attain A Superior Position For The Attack.

Of Course, The Outcome Of The War Would Not Have Been Changed. The War Was Lost Perhaps, When It Was Started. At Least It Was Lost In The Winter Of '42, In Russia.

Many Pilots Of The Time Were The Opinion That A Fighter Pilot In A Closed Cockpit Was An Impossible Thing, Because You Should Smell The Enemy. You Could Smell Them Because Of The Oil They Were Burning.

And Most Of These Pilots Were Lost During The First Five Flights.
