'Boots' LeBoutillier was an American flying Ace credited with 10 victories in World War One. Having crossed into Canada and subsequently flying for the British, he is seen here in his Sopwith Triplane N5459 of 9 Naval Squadron in France in 1917 in which he scored 3 victories. In April 1918 he was involved in the dogfight in which Manfred von Richthofen - the infamous Red Baron - was shot down and killed. He was awarded the British Distinguished Flying Cross and after the war performed barnstorming and skywriting and gave flying lessons to Amelia Earhart. He appeared in many Hollywood movies as a stuntman, and for his rescue of a crashed pilot in Colorado he received the Silver Medal of Valor, the highest decoration of the Civil Air Patrol. LeBoutillier died in 1983 aged 88 after a life in aviation.

Tribute to Oliver 'Boots' LeBoutillier by Ivan Berryman. 		Tommy Sopwith was born in 1888. He became the second person to fly the English Channel, and he established the Sopwith Aviation Company in 1912. His first successful aircraft design was the Sopwith Tabloid. This was a very modern aircraft when introduced in 1913. With its top speed of 92-MPH the Tabloid won the 1914 Schneider Trophy race. Two other early Sopwith designs were the Bat Boat, one of the first flying boats flown by the Naval Wing, and the Three-Seater, a large observation aircraft. Sopwith proliferated many other designs during the Great War, including the Snipe, Pup, Dolphin, Salamander, Strutter, and Camel. Sopwiths triplane was introduced in 1917. It evolved from the need for an aircraft with a superior rate of climb. By reducing the length and width of the wings, and by adding a third wing, the desired results were achieved. The triplane was a sound design with good rate of climb and very good maneuverability. It was somewhat underpowered when compared with its German adversaries. It was powered with either a 110-HP or 130-HP Clerget engine. The Sopwith Triplane utilized a convention design with I-sections and longertrons made of spruce wood. The fabric was separated from the structural members by thin strips of spruce, and the forward section of the fuselage was covered with sheet aluminum. The Triplane had a steerable tailskid, and the undercarriage was built with streamlined steel tubing. This diminutive aircraft was 26 feet 6 inches in span and just under 19 feet in length. The maximum speed of the aircraft was 117-MPH; attainable at 5,000 feet altitude. With a service ceiling of 20,500 feet the Triplane had a maximum endurance of 90 minutes. Maneuverability was a hallmark of Sopwith designs and the triplane was no exception to this rule. Many Royal Naval Air Service pilots flew the Triplane. For most of 1917 the pilots of Navy 1, 8, and 10 squadrons in Flanders flew Triplanes. Sopwith also produced a 200-HP Hispano-Suiza powered triplane that had larger wings to compensate for the increased engine weight. More than 20,000 aircraft were built of Sopwith design prior to the companys merger with Hawker in 1933. Captain R.A. Little was the RNASs highest-scoring ace with a total of 47 victories. He had fifteen victories (Nos 22-36) that were attained while flying the Sopwith Triplane with No 8 Squadron RNAS between April 1917 and July 1917.

Tribute to Oliver 'Boots' LeBoutillier by Ivan Berryman.		 Captain Howard J T Saint was a Welsh flying Ace who claimed 7 victories between August and October 1917 and was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. He is shown here in his personal aircraft, Sopwith Triplane N6295 'B' in August 1917 - the aircraft in which he claimed a reconnaissance aircraft on the 21st and an Albatros D.V on the 25th, his 3rd and 4th victories. He claimed a further 3 victories while flying Sopwith Camels before becoming a test pilot, continuing a career in aviation until his retirement. He died in 1976 at the age of 83.
