Sure does. Many are incompetent, but can still shoot you down..... if they have 3 other guys with them. They're not THAT incompetent.
Anyway, I would like to see more pilots with balls. People not afraid of death, and not so attached to winning a field, as to becoming competent pilots. Timidity is to be pitied and despised. Learn to love your death. Learn from it. Become a flying beast, and mock any pansies who refuse to fight you 1on1 even when you give them the advantage.
Winning a war over and over is not rewarding, because you haven't won if you refuse to learn anything as a pilot.
