Hello /his/, I got a nice little riddle for you.

The scenario:
In 1915 an Englishman who we'll call John wakes up and goes to buy newspapers. He comes home and looks at the headline reading:"German pilot, World War One war hero, shot down near London". He scratches his head thinking:"Wait, what"?

So it's your job to find out what's wrong with this story.

It wasn't called World War I at the time.

I don't think they would call it World War One in 1915.

>World War One war hero

Airplanes weren't invented until 2004.

1. It wasn't called 'World War One' in 1915, because that'll make no sense sense WW2 isn't a thing for another 25 years
2. Planes weren't used for dogfighting or dropping bombs in 1915, they were mainly just to survey enemy positions and trenches.Why would the Germans bother to fly to London?
