Pardon me for sticking my WB nose in this truly epic display of chest-thumping, but I would like to say two things.
Hristo, what a nice troll. As to LW pilots being better than USAAF pilots becuase their planes are harder.....what a crock!!!
Secondly, a few months ago this "No LW is better becuase we fly crappier planes! No you're not!" thing came up on AGW in WB. The solution was somewhat simple.
A Duel. And not a duel between two pilots. Anything can happen here, a pilot can have a bad day, etc. etc. I mean a duel between those who fly American iron and the Luftwussies

.
Pick a date. Get 8 pilots from each side. 8 pilots in LW iron and 8 pilots in -51D's (or a couple in -47D's or -38L's if you so desire). 15K merge, guns hot. Set up a defined area so one pilot can't try to run to survive. Best 2 out of 3. Last pilot flying wins it for his team. Get more than 8 pilots so some can switch in and out.
I for one volunteer to fly for the USAAF side.
BTW, the end result in WB wasn't even close. And there are some damn good LW sticks in there.
<S> You may now resume your chest-thumping.
