rdf:langString # Pilots must dive to attack with zest, and must hold their fire until they get within one hundred yards of the target # Achieve surprise by approaching from the east # Utilize the sun's glare and clouds to achieve surprise # Pilots must keep physically fit by exercise and the moderate use of stimulants # Pilots must sight their guns and practice as much as possible. Targets are fleeting. # Pilots must practice spotting machines in the air and recognizing them at long range, and every aeroplane is to be treated as an enemy until it is certain it is not # Pilots must learn where the enemy's blind spots are # Scouts must be attacked from above and two-seaters from beneath their tails # Pilots must practice quick turns, as this manoeuvre is used more than another in a fight # Pilots must practice judging distances in flight as these are very deceptive # Decoys must be guarded against—a single enemy is often a decoy—therefore the air above must be searched before attacking # If the day is sunny, machines should be turned with as little bank as possible; otherwise the sun glistening on their wings will give away their positions at long range # Pilots must keep turning in a dogfight and never fly straight unless firing # Pilots must never dive away from an enemy, as he gives an opponent a non-deflection shot—bullets are faster than aeroplanes # Pilots must keep an eye on their watches during patrols, on the direction and strength of the wind

rdf:langString Edward Corringham "Mick" Mannock VC, DSO & Two Bars, MC & Bar (24 May 1887 – 26 July 1918) was a British flying ace in the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force during the First World War. Mannock was a pioneer of fighter aircraft tactics in aerial warfare. At the time of his death he had amassed 61 aerial victories, making him the fifth highest scoring pilot of the war. Mannock was among the most decorated men in the British Armed Forces. He was honoured with the Military Cross twice, was one of the rare three-time recipients of the Distinguished Service Order, and was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross. Mannock was born in 1887 to an English father, Edward Mannock, and an Irish mother. Mannock's father served in the British Army and the family moved to India when Mannock was a child. Young Mannock was sickly and developed several ailments in his formative years. Upon his return to England he became a fervent supporter of Irish nationalism and the Irish Home Rule movement but became a member of the Independent Labour Party. In 1914 Mannock was working as a telephone engineer in Turkey. After the Ottoman Empire's entry into the war on the side of the Central Powers he was interned. Mannock was badly treated and soon fell ill. Turkish authorities repatriated him to Britain believing him to be unfit for war service. Mannock recovered and joined the Royal Engineers and then Royal Army Medical Corps. He moved services again and in 1916 joined Royal Flying Corps (RFC). After completing his training he was assigned to No. 40 Squadron RFC. Mannock went into combat on the Western Front, participating in three separate combat tours. After a slow start he began to prove himself as an exceptional pilot, scoring his first victory on 7 May 1917. By February 1918 Mannock had achieved 16 victories and was appointed Flight Commander of No. 74 Squadron. He amassed 36 more victories from 12 April—17 June 1918. After returning from leave Mannock was appointed commanding officer of No. 85 Squadron in July 1918, and scored nine more victories that month. Days after warning fellow ace George McElroy about the hazards of flying low into ground fire, that fate befell Mannock and he was killed in action dogfighting too close to the ground on 26 July 1918.

As de l'aviation durant la Première Guerre mondiale, il est, avec ses 61 victoires, considéré comme le meilleur pilote britannique du conflit. De mère irlandaise et de père anglais, qui sert dans l'armée britannique, Edward Mannock déménage en Inde lors de son enfance. De santé assez fragile, il développe plusieurs maladies pendant sa jeunesse. À son retour en Angleterre, il devient un fervent partisan du nationalisme irlandais, du Home Rule et adhère au Parti travailliste indépendant. Au déclenchement de la Première Guerre mondiale, Edward Mannock travaille comme ingénieur en téléphonie dans l'Empire ottoman. Après l'entrée en guerre de l'Empire ottoman aux côtés des Puissances centrales, il est emprisonné, comme citoyen britannique. Du fait des mauvais traitements qu'il subit, il tombe rapidement malade et les autorités ottomanes finissent par le rapatrier en Grande-Bretagne en avril 1915, le jugeant inapte au service militaire. Il se rétablit et rejoint le Royal Army Medical Corps puis le Corps of Royal Engineers. Il change à nouveau de service en 1916, et rejoint la Royal Flying Corps (RFC). Au terme de sa formation, il est affecté au No. 40 Squadron RAF et part au combat sur le front de l'Ouest. Après des débuts modestes, il commence à faire ses preuves comme pilote, remportant sa première victoire au combat aérien le 7 mai 1917. En février 1918, Edward Mannock compte déjà 16 victoires à son actif et obtient un poste de commandement dans le No. 74 Squadron RFC. Il remporte 36 autres victoires entre le 12 avril et le 17 juin 1918. Après son retour de permission en juillet 1918, il est nommé commandant du No. 85 Squadron RAF et remporte neuf nouvelles victoires ce mois-là. Quelques jours après avoir mis en garde son collègue et as George McElroy contre les dangers du vol à basse altitude en cas de tir depuis le sol, il est tué au combat dans ces conditions exactes le 26 juillet 1918. Edward « Mick » Mannock est l'un des hommes les plus décorés des forces armées britanniques, il est honoré deux fois de la Croix militaire. Il est l'un des rares à recevoir trois fois l'Ordre du Service distingué et à être décoré à titre posthume de la Croix de Victoria.
