And the USAAF ended up training so many pilots, it was inconsequential.

5000 was no small number in early 42

If i could have voted i would chose the USAAF/USN because they fought Zero fighters in the Pasific with obsolete aircraft.

Care to elaborate on that?

 

[FlexiBull]

Is there anyway that admin can do a bit of research to see if there is any correlation between the results of the poll and the demographic of the members who voted?

Apologies if this has been suggested already

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Unfortunately no. When this thread and poll was started back in 2007, it was not made a public poll.

Can we restart the poll? New members since this was first started might have different opinions.

 

[parsifal]

what was the outcome of the last poll? I cant remeber.

It would be great to refine this poll a little...Best at what? In what time frame. I dont think the USAAF can even come close to claiming the premier spot in 1940, for example, but in 1945, i9ts hard to discount that claim. The question is simply too wide ranging to easily answer

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

I like that idea as well parsifal and I will start up a few new polls to refine it a bit and then close this one.

So did the KNIL and the RAF.

Here are some new threads to discuss the same topic. I could have broken it down more but decided to make it 3 major time periods.
