Re: Luftwafffe pilot rotation
So which system do you think was better? I suppose the Luftwaffe system created a pool of very experienced aces mixed up with a lot of not so well trained pilots while the Allied system created a lot of well trained pilots with little experience? Obviously if I was a pilot I would prefer the Allied system, did the Luftwaffe just not think about using experienced pilots to transfer their skills to new pilots or was it some sort of Nazi ideology thing that German pilots don't need a rest? I've read of some pretty wierd effects of so-called "battle fatigue" on allied pilots.
