Returned to this website after not viewing it for eight years. Was curious to view again my father's WW1 record listed under Aces. Somewhat dismayed to note commercialization of website since my last visit.

My great uncle Jesse James was inducted into the Army Air Corp 8/1/1918 at Paris, Mo.

His record indicates he was at BUFFALO ACCEPTANCE PK, BUFFALO, NY until discharge.

Does anyone have info on this place? Google search shows no WWI info.

Thanks

Great site.
Arthur Hicks Peck, DSO, MC & Bar, who is listed as an Ace was my wife's father's first cousin. He went on to become a Group Captain in later years. Although born in Darjeeling, India, his father, Lt Col Francis Samuel Peck, IMS, was a Bristolian. Arthur's uncles were all military men, and his great uncle had served in the Crimea and the Indian Mutiny.

This is a jaw-dropping compendium of information. It provides a connection back into aviation's infancy.
I flew as an observer on Forward Air Control missions in Laos during the Vietnam War. There's something about hazarding it all in a small airplane that brands one forever...

I have just come into possession of a wooden propeller with
signatures of a number of significant aviation pioneers, including
Charles Lindbergh. Many of the signatures are from members of
The Quiet Birdmen. Any help in getting more information would
be greatly appreciated.

Enjoyed the site. Was reading my Grandfather's memoirs and decided to find more info about the type of aircraft he flew during the war. Have a pic of him in his RE8 with tail number CV869 3B. He was 2nd LT Charles E Richardson with Royal Flying Corps' 4th Squadron. Would appreciate any information on this aircraft or unit. Thanks!!

Is Harold Balfour the father of author Ian Balfour? According to Wikipedia, Ian is (was?) the second baron of Inchyre. Ian Balfour the author is a diamond historian and former jeweler. He's written a handful of books on historic diamonds. Does anyone know if he's the same Ian Balfour as mentioned on Wikipedia?

My father, Flight SubLieutenant Ewen Sutherland Campbell was in the RNAS. He was born and raised in Toronto, learned to fly at the Curtis Aviation School in Long Branch ( now part of Toronto ) and received his commisson July 4, 1917. He came home from the war with a leg injury. He had one shoe with a sole about 7 cm thick. Other than that I know nothing about his wartime service. Any help would be most appreciated.

I was trying to do some WW1 research on the internet and
found this site. It seems that Walter Blume, a WW1 German
fighter pilot, claimed a Sopwith Triplane N5357 as one of his
28 victories. The pilot of the Sopwith told me that his machine
had engine trouble and he couldn't climb out of trouble with
the rest of his group when approached by German fighters, so
he tried to escape downwards and ended by crash landing on a
ploughed field.

My grandfather, Wesley Fletcher Robinson, flew a Sopwith Camel in the war - the picture I have shows his Sopwith with call numbers B3855 on the tail and JOY on the side of the plane. Joy was my grandmothers name. Any body out there have any information on WF Robinson?

This was a very interesting web site about WW1 but I would have liked to see the history of all aces (from all countries)
