Re: Poor flight discipline by Luftw. pilots ==> high accident rates

Now I get your point. Most interesting, especially the attitude of the Luftwaffe aces being trained to 50ies jet status after the war.
Looking at the LW loss rates I´m always wondering about the sheer amount of so-called "Bedienungsfehler" as loss reason. The odd behaviour of the Bf 109 during take-off and landing imho can´t exclusively be the reason for those accidents because the otherwise more stable Fw 190 was involved in such accidents, too

Regards

Roland
