Actually a large percentage of Americans that I have come across share this view, they also share the the view that "ONE OF OUR F22's CAN TAKE OUR ANY AIRFORCE IN THE WORLD MAN" :E

Well, don't get me wrong, I don't completely disagree with you. I just think there is no need to piss off any yank on this board just because you met a few that showed you their stupidity.

It's not the first time... Sebastiaan is right here. Pointing something out like this sounds like a bunch of female tea-time gossip.

wtf, tea time gossip?? We're talking about some idiots believing that they were responsible for one of the greatest victorys of 'modern' times

The Battle of Britain 1940
In the summer of 1940, the German Luftwaffe attempted to win air superiority over southern Britain and the English Channel by destroying the Royal Air Force and the British aircraft industry. This attempt came to be known as the Battle of Britain, and victory over the RAF was seen by the Germans as absolutely essential if they were eventually to mount an invasion of the British Isles.

The Germans had overrun Belgium, the Netherlands and northern France in May 1940, using the Blitzkrieg ('Lightning War') technique that relied, among other things, on close coordination between ground troops and the air force. Although the Luftwaffe proved very competent in this role, it was not trained or equipped for the longer-range operations that became part of the Battle of Britain.

It is widely believed that had the Germans succeeded in their aim of destroying the RAF, they would have been able to invade Britain relatively easily. This was, after all, at a time when Britain was the only European power resisting Nazi Germany, even though she did enjoy massive support from her Commonwealth partners.

The Soviet Union did not enter the war against Germany until June 1941, and the United States didn't get involved until December of that year. It was this state of affairs that lay behind Winston Churchill's famous speech to Parliament on 20 August, right in the middle of the concerted German air attacks on southern Britain, in which he said, 'Never in the field of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few.'

You are talking about a few people, half the time it sounds like you are talking about every American... But I do see why you are mad... Americans think differently about everything LOL
