Re: [Basic] Skill of the week: Mount and Riding
This is true, at least for WW I and II. While you needed a minimum threshold of piloting skill to be an ace, gunnery skill could vastly exceed flying skill. It was discovered in WW2 that pre-war acrobatics pilots didn't do as well in combat as men who might not fly as well but who had a better grasp of combat tactics.
