| "As he prepared for his first combat patrol novice fighter pilot Wolfram von Richthofen was keen to impress his famous cousin the famed 'Red Baron'and the flight leader for the mission Although suffering from fatigue and combat stress Manfred von Richthofen was the consummate professional and the safety of his fellow airmen was of paramount importance to him As the Fokker DR1 fighters of Jasta 11 climbed away from Cappy aerodrome on 21st April 1918 Wolfram had been given strict instructions to stay out of trouble should the formation encounter the enemy staying on the periphery of the action and experiencing what the melee of a dogfight looked like As his comrades later engaged in combat with the Sopwith Camels of RAF No209 Squadron Wolfram did as instructed but found himself under attack by one of the Camels which had also been loitering on the edge of the fighting an aircraft which was flown by the similarly inexperienced Wilfred 'Wop' May Taking immediate evasive action the Camel sped past his Triplane with the incident attracting the attention of his famous cousin &8211; Manfred von Richthofen pursued the Camel which seemed destined to become his 81st victim Wolfram von Richthofen would survive the encounter to become a fighter ace in his own right however this meeting of two novice pilots over the trenches of the Western Front would ultimately claim the life of the world's most famous airman Having just led an attack against two British RE8 reconnaissance aircraft above the Somme battlefield Manfred von Richthofen re-joined the rest of Jasta 11's Fokker Triplane fighters in time to lead a further attack against a formation of Sopwith Camels from No209 Squadron RAF Displaying all his legendary flying skills the Red Baron attacked the enemy aircraft whilst at the same time keeping an eye on his cousin Wolfram a novice pilot who had been instructed not to engage in combat On seeing that one of the Camels had attacked Wolfram's Triplane he broke away from the dogfight and went to his aid quickly positioning himself on the tail of the Sopwith fighter Clearly flown by an inexperienced pilot the Camel was the mount of young Canadian airman Wilfred 'Wop' May who realising his error dived at high speed for the ground and the safety of Allied lines Flying perilously close to the ground and narrowly missing the church steeple at Vaux-sur-Somme May knew that if he pulled up he would fall to the guns of the ace pilot behind him but as the high ground of Morlancourt Ridge approached he had no option Miraculously his aircraft was not peppered with bullets and the Triplane giving chase was seen to rear up and make a forced landing in a nearby field &8211; although he didn't know it at the time May was being hunted by Manfred von Richthofen and whilst he had managed to escape with his life the famous Red Baron had not been so fortunate and lay dead in the cockpit of his red Fokker Triplane"

| "As one of the most capable twin engined aircraft of WWII the Bristol Beaufighter was originally developed as a heavy fighter variant of the company&8217;s Beaufort bomber already in service with the Royal Air Force The first examples were pressed into service as nightfighters and whilst the aircraft proved to be a significant improvement over existing types there was more to come from the mighty beau As the aircraft received successive upgrades to make it more powerful and capable of carrying a greater array of offensive weaponry the Beaufighter became a successful multi-role aircraft with a particular flair for mounting hard hitting anti-shipping strikes into the North Sea preventing Axis shipping from moving supplies back to Germany It was during one of these missions that Banff based Flying Officer Maurice Exton was awarded a DFC for outstanding flying skill and determination in the face of the enemy Flying Beaufighter NE829 on 9th October 1944 Exton and his squadron attacked a large convoy of enemy vessels off the coast of Norway but his aircraft was hit by heavy flak from the ships Damaging the aircraft&8217;s flight controls causing it to almost flip onto its back Exton wrestled with the Beaufighter&8217;s control column bringing it back straight and level before immediately pressing home his attack He then nursed the damaged aircraft back to Banff where he managed to land safely Inflicting heavy damage on the enemy convoy they attacked this incident says as much about the determination of the airmen of Coastal Command as it does about the resilience of the Bristol Beaufighter"

| "As its history was very much connected to British requirements it is no surprise that the Mustang was used extensively by the Royal Air Force during WWII from the early Allison powered Mustang I to the Dallas produced Packard Merlin powered IVa The final victory for a WWII RAF Mustang belonged to Norwegian ace Werner Christie who was flying his personal machine KH790 Following the conclusion of a successful bomber escort mission over Germany Christie led his Mustangs in search of Luftwaffe fighters Flying above Finow airfield he noticed a flight of Fw 190s and immediately dived to attack His first burst of fire caught the wing of an unsuspecting Focke Wulf blowing half of the wing off and sending the fighter spiralling into the ground This would be Christie&8217;s eleventh and final victory of the war Regarded as one of the most successful aircraft of all time and something of an American classic the Mustang actually came into production following a British requirement for additional fighters Rather than licence build the Curtiss P-40 fighters the British were looking for North American Aviation promised a totally new aircraft which would be superior to the P-40 A proud boast from this relatively new manufacturer but could they pull it off? In record time they built a prototype aircraft which showed great promise and the British immediately placed a large order Originally powered by the American Allison V-1710 engine the Mustang I was faster than the Spitfire and possessed greater range but at higher altitudes the performance significantly dropped off In an attempt to rectify this deficiency the Mustang was married with the successful and combat proven Rolls-Royce Merlin engine and the rest is history &8211; the Merlin powered Mustang was a superb fighting aeroplane Dimensions 221 x 75 x 221Scale 172Limited Edition YesLimited Edition Size 1300Wingspan 155mmAge Suitability 14"
