Re: Italian aircraft and their top aces
Hello Michael,
I love your posts dealing with the aircraft types & aces' scores! I am just wondering wouldn't it be better to call things "Victory" rather than "Kill" or maybe "Destroyed". I know so many instances where aircraft was blowing up even in mid-air but pilot survived... Just my 2 cents! BTW are there any of Italian Aces that flew later Fiat models? Best, Miloš

Re: Italian aircraft and their top aces
Hello Miloš,
"kill" is the usual translation of the German word "Abschuss", literally "shoot-down". "victory" is the usual translation of the German word "Luftsieg", literally "aerial victory". Unfortunately, there is no German translation for the English word "claim". I chose "kill" because it's the shortest word of these ;-) As far as I know the Fiat G.55 didn't produce aces but I would be glad to be proven wrong. Have a nice Wednesday, Michael
