Rise of Flight "The Death of Mannock"

[aaronzack14]

i dont blame him, id rather shoot myself, or fall a couple hundred feet than be burned alive.

[17MrLeon]

@aaronzack14 I would have bigger feel of burning and surving it. I would not have the guts to shoot my self but I would bail out

[dividednation44]

RIP Schöpf and hein :(

[B1Studios]

Well done, fine sir! That was great, especially liked the end, it was heart breaking. <;(

[FlyMervin]

Nice video ... and ... how name is a last music ?

[Mysticpuma]

Excellent and very well put together video. I recognise the detail of research from the Documentary "World War 1 Aces Falling" which was a superb Documentary.

Your video brings the story to life and the RoF game engine has impressed me too, as-well as your Film-Making/Editing skills.

Very well done, great feature. Cheers, Mysticpuma

I'm pretty sure that most stories say that Edward Mick Mannock was credited with 73 kills by the time of his death even though some say 61, quite a difference ? This was another great video made BTW. It's nice to see people using correct background music for these types of genre.

[mrceebees14]

That German gray with the black Iron Cross is just kick ass looking.

[Cancrizans]

I love your videos! Just wanted to point one thing out, in this one some of the white text is almost impossible to read when it appears against the clouds. Keep up the terrific work!

[JTelli786]

absolutely love your videos ima subscribe somthing i dont do often

[BloodyWatersGR]

Poor Schöpf.

[Yperanthropoidsx]

such a good video!!

[martytheparty1976]

again bloody great work.The legend of Mannock grows

[greenbeanieman]

I thought this was very well done. Telling a sad story in such a violent time. Though many heroes were made on all sides during the war, I hope and pray that we never have to see a time filled with such turmoil and darkness ever again. RIP to all of those who gave their lives for their nations.

[SUPERMEINNAME]

how do you get those camera angles out?

[kolbpilot]

'Sizzle sizzle, wonk" was Mannocks' expression of all the German aviators he sent down in flames.

[sisco249]

killed by the scum - ridden krauts! Death to all germans, then and now.

We are humans, equal what nationality we have. So do not seed hate, please.

poor manock

[punish907]

sirgisbod thanks for posting this video about about Mick, I know speculation had him listed as knocking down 73 enemy planes but some credited him with 61 kills. nevertheless he was a great fighter pilot and hated the hun. I remember reading as a child in the 60's that Mick lied about his eye sight covering the same eye twice being that he was blind in the other and in the confusion to the testers he passed the test. Can you imagine what he could have done with 2 good eyes? :)

[Ozzyk1981]

Great video!!

[Zebred2001]

Excellent video! My congratulations. I've just finished reading Lt. Colonel William A. "Billy" Bishop's memoirs Winged Warfare as well as Alexander McKee's The Friendless Sky- an excellent overview of the air war in W W I in which Mannock's death is covered.

[7511232]

Salute !

[bamboonigga12charlie]

Lol its like cessna 172's at war lol

[Friendo1231]

I'm a bit late to commenting on this, but I thought it was terrific- especially how you used clips from TV programs and blended them in (quite well).

Have you ever considered doing a "The Death of..." video on Oblt. Erich Löwenhardt? His would be quite interesting since it involved a mid-air collision and his parachute failing at nearly 12,000 feet. A most unfortunate end for the 21-year-old 54 victory ace.

[FRGR8]

Very nice made movie, thx.

[MrWandso]

Fantastic movie, I love the mix of real life footage with ROF. A great tribute, thanks for sharing.

[computernator11]

God bless mannock . Im in 378 mannock sqn of Wellingborough : atc RAF

[valkyrie321]

I really liked the historical aspect of this video. Great views and camera work mate. Cheers!

[LightspeedProd]

It's unclear... it looked like Mannock probably jumped before the crash before burning. In any case a great tribute to the trembling ace....one of my favorites..

[nynaiqmal]

Poor Mannock, he never got the chance to use the revolver.He died in his nightmares of being burnt alive.He died as a hero. SALUTE!!! to one of the most greatest aces of all time.

[sirgisbod]

@CrankEmpire - just a combination of the different camera views in game - each can be altered with mouse movement & the zoom.. Just a case of experimentation to get the right shot..

[CrankEmpire]

Wow loved it!

How do you follow the planes like that?

and still look at others.

[FG28Peterace]

Great movie - good work!

[flightstarpilot]

Nicely done! good storytelling.

[carrick58]

GOOD WORK

[vo101sanyo]

Awesome!

[TXRog]

Once again, you have proven to be an expert at creating not only historically accurate videos, but equally beautiful ones as well.

Thanks for sharing.

[XTRMNTR2K]

Wow... that was moving.

I loved your Voss and von Richthofen videos, but this is, in my opinion, your best work so far. Keep up the great work!
