Capitaine Georges Guynemer by Ivan Berryman.
One of Frances most venerated pilots in World War 1 was Capitaine Georges Guynemer whose final victory tally has never been fully established, although he has been officially credited with 53 kills. It is more likely, however, that his actual total was nearer to 88! He is shown here in his Spad S.VII having just claimed his 31st victim, a Gotha bomber.

Oberleutnant Lothar Freiherr von Richthofen by Ivan Berryman.
On the evening of 7th May 1917, a fierce battle took place involving aircraft of Jasta 11 and 56 Sqn RFC, the former led by the brother of the Red Baron, Lothar von Richthofen. As the sun dipped beneath the heavy clouds, most expected the dogfight to break off in the fading light, but an extraordinary duel between the RFCs Captain Albert Ball and Lothar von Richthofen broke out, the two aircraft flying directly at each other, firing continuously, then turning and repeating the manoeuvre. Lothars all red Albatross was damaged, but landed safely. Albert Balls SE5, however, was seen by observers to fall through the heavy cloudbase inverted, before crashing heavily, fatally wounding Ball.

An Air Combat First by Keith Woodcock
Air America Bell 205 vs Attacking North Vietnamese Air Force An-2 Colt Captain Theodore H. Moore and Flight Mechanic Glenn R. Woods 12 January 1968 at Lima Site 85, Phou Pha Thi, Laos. Air America Won. During the Vietnam War the Americans operated a secret radar station; Site 85, situated 15 miles from the North Vietnamese border atop one of the highest mountains in Laos. Crucially it gave American bombers the ability to attack in all weather, a critical capability during the Rolling Thunder bombing campaign. The North Vietnamese got wise! Captain Theodore H. Moore and Flight Mechanic Glenn R. Woods had been recruited to fly for Air America, a CIA owned and operated proprietary that was used to support intelligence agents and military personnel in Asia. On 12 Jan 1968, Moore and Woods, who were on a mission delivering artillery ammunition in the area, watched in amazement as a formation of North Vietnamese Air Force AN-2 Colt biplanes attacked the base. The two Russian built biplanes dropped mortars, fired rockets and strafed the radar station with machine gun fire. Moore radioed a warning to the agents on the ground; however the attack killed several Hmong guerrillas defending the base. Moores helicopter, a civilian version of the UH-1 Huey was supposed to be unarmed, but Woods had packed an AK-47, officially contraband, but in their defence Moore explained; if you go down and dont have a weapon, youre Toast. They decided to; make chase Moore said. The Colts, first flown in 1947, were faster than the helicopter, which was able to gain on them when they flew low and then tried to climb the mountainous terrain. Woods fired from the door of the Huey. One of the planes crashed immediately, while the second plane, also hit, flew on for several miles before crashing into a ridge. The shooting down of fixed wing aircraft from a helicopter was a Singular aerial victory in the entire history of the Vietnam war, according to the author of One Day Too Long: Top Secret Site 85 and the Bombing of North Vietnam. Moore was initially hauled before his superiors under threat of Court Marshal, I was a little out of line in what I did’ he recalled. However after initial consternations his actions were finally commended. Two months later Site 85 was destroyed by North Vietnamese Commandos, 12 U.S. Air Force personnel were killed, the largest single loss of USAF personnel during the war.

Leutnant Josef Jacobs by Ivan Berryman.
Germays greatest exponent of the Fokker Dr1 Triplane, Leutnant Josef Jacobs is depicted chatting with colleagues of Jasta 7 before a sortie in the spring of 1918. His black Triplane became well known to allied pilots, not least because of his formidable kill rate. By the end of the war, still aged just 24, Jacobs had claimed 48 enemy aircraft destroyed. The unusual practice of applying the black cross to the upper sides of the lower wings was to counter friendly fire from other German aircraft who frequently mistook the Dr1 for a Sopwith Triplane.
