blackbeltbill Posted November 13, 2022 Posted November 13, 2022 Take The Multiple Use Area Challenge.
blackbeltbill Posted November 13, 2022 Author Posted November 13, 2022 If you have 55 minutes check this video out. A big part of what made Richthohen the Top Ace of WW1 was his upbringing in Hunting where he became a Top Marksman as well. Take The Multiple Use Area Challenge.
blackbeltbill Posted November 16, 2022 Author Posted November 16, 2022 Alot of the WW1 Fighter Aces were also Leaders of their own Squadrons. I Believe Sleep Deprivation is a major factor which leads to Rookie mistakes not just with Manfred Von Richthohen- but with Aces on both sides as they had to fly at least 4 Sorties each Day Take The Multiple Use Area Challenge.
blackbeltbill Posted April 11, 2023 Author Posted April 11, 2023 Manfred was also a dedicated Hunter of both Small and Big Game. Probably one of the best shots among Pilots from either side. But it was an Australian Machine Gunner from the Ground and not Roy Brown that brought him down. He should have been grounded after achieving 80- the Highest Kill count of all Fighter Pilots as he was suffering from PTSD and Lack of Sleep leading to Rookie mistakes that cost him his Life. Take The Multiple Use Area Challenge.
blackbeltbill Posted April 21, 2023 Author Posted April 21, 2023 On this Date- April 21- WW1s greatest Fighter Ace was Killed in Combat back in 1918. Take The Multiple Use Area Challenge.
blackbeltbill Posted June 11 Author Posted June 11 I just happened to watch this video again. Probably the best video as far as who brought Richthohen down. Only 12 to 20 seconds of Life left and Richthohen brought his Triplane down in a rough landing after getting shot by Australian machine gunner- Popkins. I think in the end Richthohen was suffering from Post Traumatic Syndrome and lack of sleep from too many sorties each day. Excellent Military video if you have time. Take The Multiple Use Area Challenge.
