Occam's razor would mitigate in favor of clueless somnambulist, given the relative abundance of the two categories.

I seem to recall somebody posting that one of the four engined WWII bombers could do it.

i think that the 110 could do it...maybe the beaufighter? not sure-- ive got no books with me, too lazy for google as well.

So with everyone demanding this and that in the name of realism...in WWII, did fighters really dump half their fuel at the first sign of enemy fighters just to get lighter?   :rofl

I thought dumping sausage on pizza killed the pizza?  :headscratch:

It doesnt just kill the pizza.... it utterly completely makes the pizza into a disgusting radioactive pile of slop that starving hogs will not even eat.

Fuel dump only for planes that had the abiltity to do so "in flight" in WWII.

For the rest, learn to fight with what you carry.

here's some advise given to me by a wise man.

option 2:  get close to a red con and have them ping you just a little so they can put holes into the fuel tank.  it requires some skill for this maneuver, but you will lose fuel in a few minutes to the level you feel comfortable.
