Default Re: Flying Rams and Air to Air Ramming

That is the guy I was trying to think of his name !

I wonder if ramming was used in air to air combat in WWI ? Seems like it would be alot safer ramming one of those aircraft due to the lower speeds and the wing struts you could chop off the other guys aircraft.

I don't know too much about WWI, as you hear some pilots carried parachutes and others did not. If you did not then ramming would be a worse idea than it already is !
