We have had forums galore on the best aces, greatest aces, top ten aces. So how about we go with the Worst Ace. Any body's opinion is welcome. There are two that come to my mind, and I have often stated that one is a favorite of mine. René Fonck and Billy Bishop. This may anger some people in the forum, and for that I apologize, that is not my intent. The reason I have choosen these two men because they have the reputation as liars. René Fonck tried to claim victories of a dead man, and Billy Bishop I have two words, Victoria Cross. This mission had to many inconsistencies. He said him and Little had planned to raid the areodrome together, ha, he hadn't flown with another aircraft for nearly a month, save large scale attacks. Plus this happened shortly after Little's death gave him the ability for another lie. These two men are the worst of the best in my mind. Then straight out worst ace of the war had to be Hermann Göring, commanding with an iron fist, hardly ever flying with his crew, and a very hated man in J.G. Richthofen. Public enemy number one has got to be him.
