Interesting to note Kurt Wolff and his fellow Jasta 11 pilot didn't even start scoring until von Richtofen took command of the squadron. Really says something about Richtofen's extraordinary leadership abilities. Voss of course was just a natural born flier, the greatest pilot of the war.
I enjoyed the film, the aircraft were more authentic. The Sheen plywood on the Albotross and the actual rotary engines on the Fokkers that spun in the cowlings to Voss' sky-blue tri-plane streaked in dark green (I assembled a model of it 40 years ago). I had hoped they would have detailed Voss' last fight when he took on I believe 7 SE-5s at once, putting bullets into each plane.
Interesting that the Baron’s two best friends, Voss and Wolff were both Jewish. Obviously it did not matter to von Richthofen. A man was a man regardless of his birth in the first world war.A lesson to take to heart.
hey man, pretty good collection of manfred`s pictures. i have many of them but i don´t have yours. by the way... someone know how tall was manfred?? i always think about it... 1.70 cms???
@TheLloydA1 What I have read about Mannock he was a cool guy, gave alot of his kills to the rookies. Over here they are starting to give William Barker his recognician as Canada's most decorated war hero.
Buenas tardes saludos cordiales pues para mí en lo personal el barón rojo fue y seguirá viendo uno de los mejores pilotos ke dio Alemania en la primera guerra mundial y perdón por la ortografía gracias dios los bendiga buenas tardes saludos
@mckessa Shame Edward Mannock did not get a chance he had 61 confirmed kills with 73 reputed kills.he would give away his kills to other pilots sometimes.
@mckessa17 No, the best evidence suggests it was in fact the Australians. As a NZer this isn't easy for me to say, but it's almost certainly the case. There is a very good study available online. Just Google it and you'll find it easily enough. Ultimately it doesn't really matter who killed him. Just another tragic death in a terribly tragic conflict.
@@michaelaluna7684 i don't know...his mother told a journalist that he said he didn't want to let a widow or, worse, an orphan because he felt he was going to die. To another journalist, Kunigunde Von Richthofen said instead that Manfred confessed her that he had fallen for a beautiful girl, daughter of family friends🤔🤔
. great pictures - first-class pilots and men could start with concepts, how fame and honour still what and which had the necessary respect one in front of the other - also before your enemies... warbirds-power.de

Great, fantastic and immortal Manfred von Richthofen!!! Respect forever!!!
Brown didn't shoot him, it was Cedric Popkin, an australian gunner on the ground.
Yeah but most likely Popkin, the right man in the right place.

Ehre seinem Andenken.
Excellent video, Where did you find the pictures?
@mosty87 - you are right Voss did have 48 kills, Albert Ball had 43 I think?
Great video Manfred 1257.

I believe MvR was a short-arse.

IMO Bishop was full of bullsh*t! Made up his own combat report that got him the VC, and 25 of his victories cannot be substantiated in any records.
Karl Allmenroder was also named(in bio's of Richtofen's) as a very close friend.
Nice vid, thank you for those photos but i think Voss had 48 shotdowns. I think he added 2 of them in his last fight against 8 british pilots.

What "Honorable" German Officers... every one.
Para mí es y será siempre el mejor piloto de la primera guerra mundial un as de ases
@mckessa just read this - On 30 April, Bishop survived an encounter with Jasta 11 and Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron.
@mckessa Shame Edward Mannock did not get a chance he had 61 confirmed kills with 73 reputed kills.he would give away his kills to other pilots sometimes.

Der Rote Baron.
What is the song? It sounds like Vangelis.
It's one of the Soundtracks from the 2008 movie Red Baron
Thanks, I really appreciate it. I will give the soundtrack a listen.
@mckessa Billy Bishop had so many phony bolony victorys

Good, bro.
actually Voss had 48 kills not 43
Mine too!
Does not.He was nowhere near Manfred when he was hit,It was an Australian soldier who got a lucky shot from the ground
did the Baron never have a girlfriend
+mothernature251 Yes, a nurse
+Playst Steve not confirmed
I've read that he was very shy and a bit "scared" around women...🤔
@@marica95 maybe wanted to stay single? Or just overly concerned about treating women with respect???
