A pilot's thoughts....

A pilot must live a horrible life. No offense to any pilots of WWI, but these planes were just the most horrible design to fight. A pilot must be thinking of his family as he gets into a dogfight, whether he will be the top dog, or end up on the land next to all the rubble of his shot down plane. He must be really nervous, if he is religious, he must be praying, doing a couple Hail Mary's or any other prayers to ask god to keep him alive, to let him have another flight, and let him land safely to reunite with his family. These pilots were brave men. Most probably knew they were most likely to end up dead, but they still continued. A pilot has alot to think about in those last instances.
