The media and the race hustling industry keeps re-inventing myths about the Tuskegee Airmen being invincible fighters. Tuskegee University has published a paper on their website that tries to show a balanced and realistic portrayal of the black pilots during WWII. The first mission assigned to black pilots was to strafe Axis fighters on a tiny Italian island. Their performance was considered poor because the black squadron fled from Axis planes, while members of two white squadrons engaged. Their was a congressional hearing on weather or not to disband the project. However, activist members of US congress protected the project. They believed that the pilots would serve as role models for black Americans. However, for the duration of the war, the black pilots continued the same pattern. They would rarely engage or pursue enemy aircraft. When you compare the records of fighter groups flying the advanced P-51 planes in the 15th Air Force, we see that white fighter groups scored 2.26 victories for every plane lost. This is 3.5 times the rate of the black fighter group. In other words, white pilots flying the same planes and the same missions were 350% more effective. Think of this as an investment. For every dollar you invest in the black pilots yields $.66, while every dollar invested in the white pilots yields $2.26. There were three black pilots who were awarded for having four or more victories. However it is a myth that any black pilots scored five victories, but were denied being recognized as an “Ace.” TABLE VII: COMPARISON OF FIFTEENTH AIR FORCE P-51 FIGHTER GROUPS Fighter Group Predominant race Victories per aircraft lost in combat 31st White 2.49 52nd White 2.08 325th White 2.22 332nd Black 0.66 Poster Comment: There was a conspiracy among government officials to give the Tuskegee airman extra training and to cover up bad they were.

During the Korean thing, I do not recall seeing any black pilots, none. We did have one black radar bombardier.

am replying from a N A200 Acer. tablets. Pretty cool Los, still trying to figure it out. Key board funky but fun
The toys available to us are just amazing. Is there a USB port for you to plug in a "real" keyboard? And if so, would the tablet recognize it?

The Tuskegee Airman were cream of the crop for blacks and bottom of the barrel for white pilots. By the way, I'd be bottom of the barrel. I sense a disturbance in the farce. Much gnashing will ensue.
Prime example. Friend of mine in WW2 finished multi engine training. He was going to be placed on a B-24 crew for shipment to Africa. From the class would be selected pilots and co-pilots, he was hoping to be co-pilot for someone that knew what was going on. He was shocked when he was picked to be pilot in command. More shocked when a kid came up to him and introduced himself and said "I am your co-pilot, sure glad to get to fly with someone that knows what the f--- is going on".
EVIL! You are EEEEEVIL! Hehe. Our white sons are sent to war against non-whites who have done us no harm, and this is not called crime; I sense a disturbance in the farce. Much gnashing will ensue.
