Standing proudly with an air of confidence, he is depicted as a distinguished male figure who made history through his extraordinary achievements. Known for flying more different types of aircraft than any other pilot during his era, Mr Gordon Bell's legacy remains unparalleled. Born in 1890 and hailing from Canada, Gerald Gordon Bell became a renowned flying ace during the First World War. Credited with an impressive tally of 16 victories throughout his service, he solidified himself as one of the most skilled pilots of his generation.
