 Erich Lowenhardt was one of the most famous German Aces of World War One.  A rival of the likes of Ernst Udet and Lothar von Richthofen in number of victories, he racked up an impressive 54 victories before his death in August 1918, caused by a failed parachute when he bailed out after a collision.  He is depicted here, not in his final Fokker D.VII, but in an Albatros D.III, claiming one of his tally of 9 observation balloons - this one in May 1918.  The fortunate balloon observer has managed to take to his parachute to escape this time, a measure the observers were often forced to employ by the German balloon busters.

 Known as Freddie, West was the first pilot of the newly formed Royal Air Force to be awarded the Victoria Cross.  He is shown here during a bombing mission to Merricourt on 19th June 1918.  Jumped by enemy fighters, he was forced to evade his assailants by weaving through German barrage balloons.  Successfully shaking off the Fokkers in Armstrong-Whitworth FK.8 C8594, he continued to his intended target.  Less than two months later, and in a similar aircraft, he undertook the mission which earned him his VC, but cost him an amputated leg.  He remained in the RAF until the end of World War Two and lived until 1988, aged 92.

 Flying P-47 Thunderbolts with the 56th Fighter Group in England, Bud Mahurin scored more than 20 victories during World War Two.  Seen here in his personal aircraft 42-8487 UN-M named <i>The Spirit of Atlantic City</i> owing to it being paid for by bonds from that city, he shot down three Me109s in a day and three Fw190s another day, before eventually being brought down by return fire from a German bomber.  Evacuated from France with the help of the Resistance, he then flew P-51 Mustangs against the Japanese in the Philippines, scoring one more victory before again being shot down, bailing into the ocean.  He went on to score more victories in the Korean War before being shot down and taken prisoner for more than a year.  He was the only pilot of the US Air Force to down enemy aircraft in the European Theater, Pacific Theater and Korean War.  He died in 2010.

 Wing Commander Ken Mackenzie was a formidable opponent during the Battle of Britain - even without any weaponry as on the occasion depicted here.  Then a Pilot Officer flying with No.501 Sqn, on 7th October 1940 he shot up an Me109 and followed it down to the sea, expecting it to ditch.  When his foe did not crash-land, he used the starboard wing-tip of his Hurricane, V6799 SD-X, to strike the tailplane of his opponent, sending the German fighter crashing into the water. Thus he claimed one of at least 6 victories during the Battle of Britain and 10 overall in the war.  Posted in June 1941 to No.247 Sqn, Ken Mackenzie was himself forced to ditch into the sea after damage from flak over Brittany.  He became a prisoner of war until October 1944 and served in the Royal Air Force until 1967, becoming an airline pilot until 1973.  He died in 2009.

 Walter Briegleb is shown in his Ju88 G.7 4R+BR as he stalks his prey - on this occasion a Lancaster.  Flying below their target, his crew would aim upward firing cannon at the inner wing of the bomber, igniting the fuel tanks.  For the bomber crews, they were very much defenceless against this type of attack, and often had no idea of the presence of an enemy aircraft in the dark.

 The attack by Leutnant Walter Briegleb and his crew on Lancaster Mk.III ND960 DX-I of No.57 Sqn early on 22nd May 1944.  Flying Me110 with codes D5+BV with his crew of Feldwebel Walter Bräunlich and Bordfunker Feldwebel Brandt, Briegleb flew undetected beneath the bomber and used the deadly 'Schräge Musik' - upward firing cannon - to hit the fuel tanks in the port wing between the fuselage and inner engine.  Pulling away, he watched the aircraft burn and could see both gunners in their turrets but no return fire came.

He was killed in action on 22nd October 1918 and is buried in West Flanders, Belgium.

 19th July 1918 - the Tondern raid, the first raid in history carried out from an aircraft carrier.  Captain Dickson is shown in his Sopwith Camel 2F.1 departing HMS Furious just after 3am, and along with 5 other aircraft would successfully attack the German Zeppelin sheds at Tondern in Denmark.  They destroyed two airships in their hangar, and the entire base was subsequently abandoned.  7 aircraft began the raid : one turned back with engine trouble, three landed in Denmark afterwards while another failed to return to the British fleet.  Only Dickson and Captain B Smart ditched in the sea near the British ships and were recovered.  For this raid, Dickson was awarded the Distinguished Service Order.  He later moved to HMS Revenge and HMS Queen Elizabeth then flew on HMS Argus and was a test pilot at the Royal Aircraft Establishment. In World War Two he helped to plan the Allied invasion of occupied Europe. He remained in the RAF post war, retiring in 1959 as Marshal of the Royal Air Force. He died in 1987.

It was as a night-fighter pilot that he excelled - the second highest scoring night Ace in history - scoring more than 100 victories for which he was awarded the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds.  He scored victories from 1941 to 1944 with NJG1, NJG2 and NJG3 before he was fatally wounded in an accident when the Ju88 he was transporting struck overhead wires on a hastily prepared makeshift runway as he came in to land.  He is depicted here in his Me110 G4 approaching a Lancaster over France in 1943.
