I always love the roar of an aircraft engine, especially a biplane. I always imagine that I'm one of the great aces in the RFC flying proud and high!

@MrEmiosk thats true and the fact that it was a very new form of warfare in which pilots on both sides had to learn how to fight.
And pilots on both sides had similer views fighting far away from home trying to kill a man that has never wronged you but your goverment.

The greatest pilot ever was a fanatic Nazi, unfortunatley his story will never be told in a movie. 2400 missions, 460 tanks destroyed (3 Soviet Tank corps), shot down 30 times by AA, lost a leg (!) and returned to flying. Sunk 1 battleship, 1 cruiser, 70 Landing craft, destroyed 800 vehicles and 9 a/c. He was never shot down by an enemy pilot andwas the only German to receive the Gold oak leaves swords and diamonds to the Knight's cross .. Hans Rudel

To answer some who wonder why pilots at that time(WW1) acted with chivalry is mostly becuse they are from noble familys, not all but most of the time and knew eachother one way or the other.
And pleas those who want to answer to my explanation keep it civil whataver you want to say..

....The days of aerial chivalry...where are the legends?....Where`s the Douglas Bader`s....the Werner Moelders.....the Erich Hartmanns....the Don Gentile`s.......even enemies can show respect.....RIP all brave men/women of the Armed Forces, hopefully civilization will never have to endure conflicts like this again...Take care friends.

@pk5887 For example Albatros DII (german plane) max. 6.000 meters (19.000 feet) and Airco D.H.2 (british plane) max. 4.265 meters (ca. 14.000 feet), these are planes used in 1916
