I am sure I will mis-spell the name Staga, but I am pretty sure that is Charles Nungusser. (something like that.)

Hehe, nazis, sure. Allied officers on the background and a French plane, Nieuport 17? Nungesser might be the correct answer?

Charles Nungesser.
A pretty good specimen for surgery :)

From : Aces pilots

Quote
A fractured skull, two broken legs, a smashed arm, a multiple-fractured jaw, a scorched foot, and a burned hand - these were some of the seventeen injuries that Charles Nungesser suffered while flying for France in the First World War. A dashing, devil-may-care pilot of legend, he was reputed to have spent more time in the hospital and in various women's beds than he did in the air. And he spent enough time in the air to shoot down 43 (45?) German aircraft.

#1 is a MiG-21 "Have Donut" operating out of Groom Lake, used to train USAF & USN pilots during the Vietnam War.
#2 BV 142
#3 Nobody got it yet.
#4 "Have Blue" another Groom Lake bird.
#5 "Tacit Blue" again Groom Lake.
#6 FirstBorg was close (he guessed the Groom Lake location) but they aren't SR-71's or YF-12's.
#7 Ki-84 flying in the 1970's
