Piloting in war is alot like driving a race car. Either you have it or you don't. Experiance and training can take you 90% of the way but the other 10% is pure talent. Some will have it, others won't.
I don't think you can easily point to one or another group of pilots flying at some point in history as "the best." There were individual pilots that were astounding. A few of these survived. What really counts is that most of a nation's pilots and air crew are well enough trained to have a reasonable chance of success regardless of whom they meet in the air.
