Battle of Britain from a Messerschmitt Bf-109E pilot perspective, June-October 1940.
The Luftwaffe started the Battle with about 1,100 Bf 109s and 906 pilots available. Some 650 aircraft were shot down.
The Bf 109 was arguably the best fighter in the world in 1940. It was faster than the Spitfire at high altitude, could dive better and had a more powerful armament of two 20mm cannon and two machine guns. Most Bf 109 pilots had more combat experience than the English which gave them an advantage. However, the 109E did not have the range to fly beyond London and carried only seven seconds worth of cannon Fire.
*Video made with iL2 Series in a Mission I flew with the Grim Reapers by Charly. Also used some sound effects from the 1969 Movie Battle of Britain by MGM.

Somewhere over France in 1915, DH.2 Vs Fokker E.
WW1 dogfights are crazy, the Bathtub (DH.2) is a death sentence hehe, it was the first effectively armed British single-seat fighter in a time when only the Germans had the technology to fire machine guns through the propeller. Run out of bullets use the Bathtub.

New F-117 pilots took their 1st Flight during day time after lots of hours in the simulator. After that almost all operations are done in the dark at Night. Only 12 USAF pilots were trained each year to fly this jet.
Check out the @fighterpilotpodcast Episode about the F-117, episode 72, very very cool interview.

How to Properly Takeoff in the F-14B:
-Wings in Auto at 20 degrees maneuver flaps down.
-Brakes on, Throttles to 80% controls wipe, all warning lights off.
-Release brakes Throttles to mil power, no burner in the B.
-At 100 knots nose wheel steering off.
-A little bit of aft stick, and once the nose lifts off let the mains come off the runway, bunt the nose slightly.
-Gear Up quickly so you don’t overspeed.
-Climb at a shallow angle to accelerate, but keep It below 450 knots.
Rock and Roll!
