Not sure who put these videos together but it's an excellent collection of WW1 Air Combat Documentaries.

One of the comments on the second video...
"My Dad met Arthur Raymond Brooks at an airshow in the 1970's. He said that he briefly mentioned this dogfight and that's all he can remember. Edit: I forgot to mention that later in the 80's he was visiting the Smithsonian air museum when he saw his plane on display. He walked up and got into the plane. He was told by people who worked there to get out but he refused and said they didn't understand, that was his plane. At first they didn't believe him that is until he perfectly told them it's serial number."
