Franz Stigler's BF-109G, built by my father-in-law and painted by me with custom printed decals to represent Stigler's plane at the time he allowed a B-17 (piloted by Lt. Charlie Brown, no less) to escape because the aircraft had been so shot up, and his considered it the same as shooting a man in a parachute. His commander, the legendary Adolf Galland, had admonished them never to do that - "You are fighter pilots.  If I ever see you shoot a man in parachute I will shoot you myself!"
