Just a remark about the knights of the sky...

Manfred von Richtoffen, was known for straffing grounded ennemies...
René Fonck would fly around the melee to pick an easy prey and shoot it down (he was a marksman).
Some others aces would flee when seeing unfavourable odds... I do not remember which one said something like: the war will go on tomorrow but my life could have ended today.

So, do not fall under the WWI propaganda: although some pilots were heroes, and even had some chivalry moves, this was not the rule.
When dreaming at the sky "knights", the people would forget about their familly members dying in the muddy trenches...

Youplay is however a game, where this chivalry can take place, because it's just being nice to your gaming partner. And may be, he will like this behaviour and challenge you for other games...



You are right Regis to record us that the behaviour of some famous WW1 pilots wasn't synonym of "esprit chevaleresque", but we have good examples of the opposite: Guynemer, Deullin, Heurtaux, etc..
Anyway, to survive as long as possible in the air, a perfect behaviour couldn't exist from my point of view...

The idea is to respect the other players by not inquinating games, not to let escape your ennemy everytime you have the advantage on him...

Exemple:

As a member of Galinettes Squadron, I'd just like to comment here that he has NEVER been observed straffing grounded enemies whilst playing Blue Max. Therefore we continue to consider him a knight of the sky.

i did see him straffing a giraffe in a safari park once though....does that count?
