Thread: Obscure combat first?

    Default Obscure combat first?

    Hey Guys,

    I'm trying to track down some info about an obscure incident to debate with a friend. It's over the first use of a pilot shooting a pistol at another pilot. I remember reading something about a German pilot and Japanese pilot exchanging shots over a German colony in southeast asia. He talks about something at a Racetrack in NYC in 1910.

    Perhaps the one to which I'm referreing actually resulted in a death, and his was more of a show contest. If anyone knows, let me know!
    Thanks in advance!

    I don't have the data in front of me, but: There was an incident reported during the Mexican Civil Wars of the 1910s where two pilots armed with revolvers traded shots with each other -- I'll have to dig to find the data, tho'.
