| The Polish fighters who flew with the Allies in England were the most dangerous. |

| Dangerous pilots are found everywhere  , however those who have been raised to be religious extremists (many in Japanese air force) or Nazi extremists (many in Luftwaffe) would result in a greater number of dangerous pilots in those air forces.
Combine a good extremist pilot with a good aircraft and  |

Country: | Id personally go with the German pilots for the Axis. I think the kills speak for themselves.

| Oops... Yeah, Poles weren't Axis, I forgot this thread was Axis only. Sorry. I heard someone say that extremist religious people would make the most dangerous pilots. Well then that depends on what you mean by dangerous? If you consider suicidal dangerous then I think it would go to the Japanese.
But if you mean dangerous as in skilled/ trained killers then I think you have to go with the Germans (axis and allied) up to about 1942 they had a better trained force overall.
So what is dangerous? Is it suicidal or skilled? I think you should qualify what is meant be dangerous before you can answer this question. |

Country: | I would have to say the Germans as well....
I really dont consider the pilots of WWII to be "Killers".... Most guys werent trying to kill the pilot, just the aircraft... There were quite a few men who flew that still upheld a code conduct....
Remember I said most.......

| By the way... breathing pure oxy for a hangover works great. Have done it several times. The problem is, as soon as your off your hangover comes back in force....  |
