The legendary <i>Red Baron</i> would score 80 confirmed victories in World War One, making him the conflict's top Ace. It was in a Fokker Dr.I - as depicted here - that he scored his final two victories, claiming two Sopwith Camels on 20th April 1918. It was in the same aircraft on the following day that he was shot down and killed. There are few pilots who gain such cultural significance as the Red Baron, still widely known more than a century after the events that gave him fame.

Tribute to Manfred von Richthofen by Ivan Berryman. 		Arguably the best known of all World War 1 fighter aces, Manfred von Richthofen, the 'Red Baron', is depicted here flying Fokker Dr.1, serial No 425/17, in its final livery following the introduction of the <i>Balkenkreuze</i>, early in 1918. Contrary to popular belief, this was the only Triplane flown by the <i>Rittmeister</i> that was painted all red and was also the aircraft in which he lost his life on 21st April 1918, the celebrated ace having scored a confirmed 80 victories against allied aircraft over France.

The Greatest of Them All - Manfred von Richthofen by Ivan Berryman. 		Fokker DR.1 Triplane 425/17 of Manfred von Richthofen, accompanied by a Fokker. D.VII wingman, swoops from a high patrol early in 1918. 425/17 was the aircraft in which the Red Baron finally met his end in April of that year, no fewer than 17 of his victories having been scored in his red-painted triplane.
