Let's Take This To The Sky !

     Dogfights. One crazy way to battle, in the sky. With it just being a scary THOUGHT I'd hate to feel what it would have felt like to actually be fighting in a plane back in WWI. Though it also seems intense and adrenaline pumping. Just stop and think, what was going through the minds of the pilots back then ? Were they excited, or were they terrified, crapping their pants ? I would feel both terrified and excited simultaneously.  The spins, twirls, dives, etc all tricks one must learn to survive. Picture flying forward, head on, to another plane. Then hearing gun shots and firing back, maneuvering around just to stay alive and then circling back to take an offense. Many lives being lost in the process we mourn, as the survivors and heroes we all know, even those who died in battle remain heroes in our hearts. Being able to return from a battle like that must have made soldiers appreciate life so much more. I for one know I would have cherished everyday on if i had to encounter with another in the air behind a fighter plane.
