As a fighter pilot I know from my own experiences how decisive surprise and luck can be for success, which in the long run comes only to the one who combines daring with cool thinking.

— General Adolf Galland, Luftwaffe.

The aggressive spirit, the offensive, is the chief thing everywhere in war, and the air is no exception.

— Baron Manfred von Richthofen

Of all my accomplishments I may have achieved during the war, I am proudest of the fact that I never lost a wingman.

— Colonel Erich 'Bubi' Hartmann, GAF.



Umm....scrolled to the bottom of the website pages there.  Can we get some US fighter aces/jocks or Generals quotes instead of Germans?  I do not understand??  Is this a recruiting program for the German Military??

This is what I see:

The first time I ever saw a jet, I shot it down. — General Chuck Yeager, USAF

To be a good fighter pilot, there is one prime requisite — think fast, and act faster.— Major John T. Godfrey, USAAF

And there are two sides of any fight...

^ Your two to my three......I win.  I guess I will still pass this on to my Cadets to see if there is interest.  It does seem like a cool activity, but that many hours in front of a computer is not my cup of tea. 

[Gunner C]

It looks like they have a lot of fun! 

[MIKE]

False.
The dates overlapped by one day for vfws and missouri wing encampment in 2009.
This year, in 2010, they aren't even on the same month (vfws in june, mo encampment in july)

[Daniel]

Oh your right Major, We're still partying like its 2009 here. So I didnt know the months were different.

[coudano]

Last call.
Only 10 days left to get your app in.
