Suicidal Englishmen?

Flame On!
My last 3 campaigns (flying for the "dark side") have been cut short by apparently suicidal Englishmen using their SE5s as battering rams. Rammed 3 times in a row, once from below, once from the side, and one head on. Did they have a British version of the sonderkommando Elbe during WWI?:costumes:

Now how many times my own wingmen have flown into me randomly, and for no apparent reason, I will keep to myself.:costumes:

ZZ.
 
Flying in DH-2s, I was routinely rammed by my wingmen during the climb out after takeoff. It got so that I actually was looking forward to the Lone Wolf missions so that I could get more than 500 ft above the field without being run into.

Bad, Brits, bad. No ramming your flight lead!:isadizzy:

Get out of the way boy or I'll run you down :a1451:

It's a perfectly acceptable tactic old chap. Why all the fuss ? You obviously weren't at Eton lol.
 
According to Biggles it just wasn't the done thing to turn away from a collision :mixedsmi: (wonder how he lasted so long?)
