Tribute to Howard Saint by Ivan Berryman. Captain Howard J T Saint was a Welsh flying Ace who claimed 7 victories between August and October 1917 and was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. He is shown here in his personal aircraft, Sopwith Triplane N6295 'B' in August 1917 - the aircraft in which he claimed a reconnaissance aircraft on the 21st and an Albatros D.V on the 25th, his 3rd and 4th victories. He claimed a further 3 victories while flying Sopwith Camels before becoming a test pilot, continuing a career in aviation until his retirement. He died in 1976 at the age of 83. |
Tribute to Oliver 'Boots' LeBoutillier by Ivan Berryman. 'Boots' LeBoutillier was an American flying Ace credited with 10 victories in World War One. Having crossed into Canada and subsequently flying for the British, he is seen here in his Sopwith Triplane N5459 of 9 Naval Squadron in France in 1917 in which he scored 3 victories. In April 1918 he was involved in the dogfight in which Manfred von Richthofen - the infamous Red Baron - was shot down and killed. He was awarded the British Distinguished Flying Cross and after the war performed barnstorming and skywriting and gave flying lessons to Amelia Earhart. He appeared in many Hollywood movies as a stuntman, and for his rescue of a crashed pilot in Colorado he received the Silver Medal of Valor, the highest decoration of the Civil Air Patrol. LeBoutillier died in 1983 aged 88 after a life in aviation. |

Collishaws aircraft was named Black Maria, Reids was Black Roger and Sharmans was Black Death, while Nash and Alexander flew Black Sheep and Black Prince respectively. Collishaws personal tally at the end of the war was 60 victories. |
