Someone posted this on another forum and I find it pretty neat. It's got (me thinks) every ace since the beginning of aerial warfare. Read a lot of great stories.

You can see tank aces, sub aces and more! Pretty cool!

Either way it led to some great reading. Not to mention it's Wikipedia, so you can edit it. :) :aok

It's a list of "aces of aces"

It's a list of "aces of aces"
That would mean 1 pilot per country per war. ;)
-
No, that would mean every man who at some point was considered the top scoring ace of a war. You'll notice that it says Immelman and Boelcke swapped the title several times before Immelmann got killed.
-
Oh my I didn't realise it was a pass the baton type of title, I stand corrected. :confused:
-
See, learning can occur! :)
I didn't understand it 100% either though, so don't feel bad. :P
