The Red Fighter Pilot

The Red Fighter Pilot

"The Red Fighter Pilot" [German: Der Rote Kampfflieger] is a book written by Manfred von Richthofen, a famous German fighter pilot ace with eighty air combat victories to his credit. "The Red Fighter Pilot" [the title refers to Richthofen's nickname, "The Red Baron"] details some of his experiences in the First World War. Richthofen finished the book in 1917, and as it was written during the war, it was subjected to war-time censorship. Also, as he was killed in combat in 1918, it was the only book he ever wrote.
