On November 23, 1916, over Bapaume, France, young Leutnant Manfred Freiherr von Richthofen met the leading English ace, Maj. Lanoe Hawker VC. Hawker claimed seven aerial victories; von Richthofen, not yet using red as his personal color nor flying his famous red triplane, ten. In legendary single combat, the two pilots fought to the death. It was the end of one great ace’s career, and the beginning of another’s.

“Von Richthofen and Hawker” captures the most famous moment in this historic encounter: the two knights of the sky, flying high above the carnage of war, look across the space between them in mutual admiration, as equals. The scene is aptly described by von Richthofen’s own account of the battle, as taken from his autobiography, Der Rote Kampfflieger (The Red Battle Flier).
