EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the First World War's aerial combat era, as German pilot and ace Max Immelmann (1890-1916) stands proudly next to his Fokker E III monoplane at Douai, France. The image, taken circa 1915-1916, depicts Immelmann in front of a shed or hangar, with his aircraft's distinctive cross markings and large wheels prominently displayed. As a member of the German Flying Circus, also known as Jagdstaffel 3 (KEK 3), Immelmann was a leading figure in the development of military aviation during the Great War. With an impressive tally of 15 aerial victories, he was a formidable opponent and a symbol of German air superiority. The Fokker E III, a single-seat, biplane fighter, was a significant advancement in aviation technology during this period. Its unique synchromesh gear system allowed the machine guns to fire through the propeller, making it a deadly weapon in the hands of skilled pilots like Immelmann. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of a World War I fighter pilot. The grounded aircraft, with its engine cooled and wings folded, stands as a testament to the technological prowess and determination of the men and women who served in the skies during this pivotal time in history. The image is an essential addition to any collection focusing on World War I aviation, military history, or the lives of notable pilots and aces. This rights-managed print from Mary Evans Prints Online is a valuable resource for researchers, historians, and enthusiasts alike, providing a unique and captivating perspective on the past.
