From Publisher:

World War One introduced many innovative and novel ways of killing the enemy. It was the first truly modern war fought with modern equipment, and for the first time the new-fangled aircraft were to play their part. The war created a new breed of men--brave, resourceful, and skilled at piloting the new fighter aircraft. Many became household names and their exploits became legendary. At a time when, for some, their flying time could be counted in hours before they were shot down, the war inspired a group of elite pilots--the Aces. Those that fought on the German side included Freiherr Manfred von Richthofen (commonly known as the Red Baron), Ernst Udet, and Hermann Goering.
