Adolph Gysbert Malan DSO & Bar DFC (24 March 1910 – 17 September 1963), better known as Sailor Malan, was a South African World War II fighter pilot who led No. 74 Squadron RAF during the height of the Battle of Britain. Malan developed a set of simple rules for fighter pilots, which eventually could be found throughout RAF Fighter Command: "TEN OF MY RULES FOR AIR FIGHTING" # Wait until you see the whites of his eyes. Fire short bursts of 1 to 2 seconds and only when your sights are definitely 'ON'. # Whilst shooting think of nothing else, brace the whole of the body, have both hands on the stick, concentrate on your ring sight. # Always keep a sharp lookout. "Keep your finger out!" # Height gives You the initiative. # Always turn and face the attack. # Make your decisions promptly. It is better to act quickly even though your tactics are not the best. # Never fly straight and level for more than 30 seconds in the combat area. # When diving to attack always leave a proportion of your formation above to act as top guard. # INITIATIVE, AGGRESSION, AIR DISCIPLINE, and TEAM WORK are the words that MEAN something in Air Fighting. # Go in quickly - Punch hard - Get out! == See also == * Dicta Boelcke 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ten Rules for Air Fighting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
