They called themselves a flying circus because they were constantly moving to where they were required and stayed in tents and kept their planes in tents.
Way too many decals and way to many dr1s, let alone for Jasta 11, the flying circus. The aircraft was mostly hated for it’s slow speed, high lift, and general difficulty to handle, like the German version of the Sopwith Camel. Another thing is how they didn’t even get those decals right, which the director had no excuses to cock up this badly, even when Jasta 11 was a huge morale booster for the Germans at the time, striking down up to 80 ALONE, Manfred Von Richthofen was the ace of aces, just above Werner Voss. Another famous ww1 dr1 ace at the time. Both lost their lives on the battlefield and never lived to see the world come to an urgent halt of the most brutal war in history come to an end. May the warriors of the skies and the ground be remembered as valiant foes for the enemy. Edit: typo
I think this accurately shows the intensity of the air wars during that time. Seeing this movie made me fall in love with the legend of the Red Baron. I have so much respect for him.
No dramatic yelling, no Michael Bay explosions, just a movie letting the viewer take in the real nature of war and imagine their own depictions of emotions from the characters. Truly a spectacular movie.
@DeadKing66 Well thats a first. Never seen someone call everyone in my country "pathetic cowards" before :-D. ruclips.net/video/E-XJM7xqwdc/видео.html ruclips.net/video/SjfuyKMgI7s/видео.html Lets agree to disagree on that fact. I also recommend checking out the Bundeswehr channel, they have some pretty nice videos there ;-)
@Yuri DeKhed yeah, those are anti-bomber balloons specifically floated to disturb bomber attack. they continue to used it up to ww2 to some degree, since bombers flew higher at that time. but it's still effective to halt ground attack and dive bomber effectiveness.
If you're watching this, you probably know as well as anybody that this film is in accurate in many ways. However, I think the film sets the tone of war really well, especially in this scene. Also, "We are sportsmen-not butchers," was actually the real Werner Voss' approach to combat.
This scene is so amazingly well done, yet so sad. I almost cried. When the British fighter got shot down and u could hear the mans screams of terror. That was so sad. Watching all the germans troops die and not know what to do. The way Richthofen and his brother look down watching their own men die brutally. This is a wonderful movie but one of the most depressing scenes ever.
@ClintonstilldoesitRAW FawkYT Really? and what are you going to do when you are advancing across no mans land and the artillery opens fire. Maybe you should study a bit about REAL WW1 history.
Got the all red part right too. No white tail, no white engine cowling, no white wheels or spoked wheels. The only white part of his Fokker was the area around the Iron Crosses. Sadly that's one of very few things it did get correct.
But no way that was possible, let alone one, unlighted flare. There were white flares, but Rise of Flight has better graphics and takes the time to be invested in a ww1 flight sim based on it’s history.
Recon and surveillance They were so important that the pilots who shot down balloons actually were considered as enemy pilots and were given the same rewards!
This movie would be a million times better if the characters were fictional, because the real Red Baron was a lot different from how this movie portrays him. "Kill the gunner first. When he's out of the way, take out the pilot." - Manfred von Richthofen, giving advice to his pilots that would keep them alive. "Aim at the machine, not the man." - This movie, flat-out contradicting history.
But he died by getting too eager and basically disobeyed his own rules of flying and chased the enemy down on the deck, which could’ve destroyed his wings at the altitude he was at at the time of his death
I know that but that’s just a speculation wether he died due to his mental state. I mean if you read “Die Note Kamphfleiger” (idk how to spell it) he reflects on his hatred towards the war after his head wound.
Anyone commenting on how "realistic" this movie is then you either need to go to an actual WWI airshow or watch The Blue Max to see how they really flew.
*****" Two Pfalz D.IIIs were produced (by two separate companies) for the film, along with three Fokker D.VIIs and two Fokker Dr.I triplanes." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blue_Max
Until 1918 when America and the allies got out of the trenches that's when it was over which was April or May (100 days offensive ) Other than that ; it was a stalemate .
+1945joshuaruiz I think you mean "Until 1918 when *Britain, France and their allies* got out of the trenches". Remember, the United States' played a truly secondary role to the British Empire and the French in this war, and joined the Anglo-French "team" per se *very* late. France did most against Germany on the Western front than any other. But even then, the war's outcome was decided long before the Spring Offensive. The Royal Navy's blockade of Germany from 1914-1918 is what destroyed the Kaiser's economic and material strength, thus winning the allies the war. The German army wasn't 100% defeated at the end of 1918. Germany's economy was.
Owen Jones as much as i respect the GB and france. They weren't going to beat germany because their troops were exhausted . if it continued on it would be a european communist revolutiuon
***** The Anglo-French armies were war weary, but "exhausted" is perhaps a large over exaggeration. The British army never broke or mutinied. The French army had mutinied on several occasions, but was reordered by 1918 to repeal the main German effort of the whole war. In reality, it was the British Empire and French armies who push the Germans back the farthest following the 1918 Spring Offensive, Germany's ultimate end game. The US army suffered heavily form its inexperience and, while contributing and showing great bravery, didn't reverse the German gains nearly as much as the British and French, who's armies were veterans and well versed in the art of war. They'd been there since 1914 and learned all the hard lessons along the way. The US army hadn't been through this process. Without the US, the war may have gone on a bit longer, but Germany's defeat was nonetheless inevitable by this point anyway.
Without the Americans Germany propably would have won at 1918. All sides were at there ends, but Germany had enough resources for a last push. Ressources the allies did not have. Not even the tanks made it a sure thing. But with the Americans and with them thousands of new and fresh troops it was just over.
Man and machine and nothing there in between The flying circus and a man from Prussia! The sky and a plane, this man commands his domain The western front and all the way to Russia!
Neither Rittmeister Freiherr von Richthofen nor Oberleutnant Freiherr von Richthofen ever shot down a balloon. Doing so became a virtual requirement for pilots to get a "Blue Max," but the elder Richthofen rather cheekily pointed out that being the leading ace of the War should be good enough.
well this scene is from the Germans spring offensive which initially was a success but ultimately brought an end to the German army, and was quickly suppressed.
Yes, indeed, they did, and not just the Red Baron. There has long been an unwritten 'warrior's code', to show respect to a fallen foe wherever possible and honour them as fellow human beings. "Today, it's your turn. It might be mine tomorrow"
@@kokodoreJr yeah but in 1:54 the personnel falls to the ground 2 seconds after the actual explosion. Thats why i doubt that its the explosion which caused them to fall.
I love how the german soldiers just walked in an open field even though theirs a massive dogfight going on over head and infantry where prime targets for airplanes
The planes weren't attacking the infantry, they were attacking the observation balloons and other aircraft. Besides in WW1, when you are ordered to charge the enemy trenches, you do it, or you will be shot by your own officers.
He wasn't that great. He basically made his squadron do the work while he setup for easy pickings from higher up. He was the highest scoring WWI German pilot, but not the greatest.
1:29 How to destroy a barrer blimp in one shot. Yes those blimps are barrer blimps because if a pilot crashes the engine dies cuz the material of the blimp or if the wing touches the string that connects the blimps to the floor the wings cut because most plane of ww1 were made of wood
Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Those are observation balloons. One flare alone absolutely will not kill any one observation balloon without oxygen mixing with the hydrogen, hence the gunfire first. The "string" you speak of in barrage balloons didn't (intentionally) cut the wings of any Great War aircraft because barrage balloons weren't conceived until 1940. And even still, they wouldn't "cut" it but rather tear it off because the fastest of these planes could fly up to 150-200 mph, against a steel cable an inch thick.
The early monoplanes had very weak wings. It wasn't until the last 2 months of the war that good monoplane fighters were available, the Fokker D-VIII and the Junkers D-1.

Yuri DeKhed Well... Not just the fact that he made himself a great pilot, it's the fact that he was determined. He also stuck out like a sore thumb, very gutsy move. That's why I'm smart, gutsy/taking a risk, and willing to take risks. That's why.
I like how all the different planes have different paint jobs and decals instead of the generic planes we usually get
Generic Mcgeneric stein imagine the friendly fire though...
That's one of the reasons their squadron was called the flying circus
They called themselves a flying circus because they were constantly moving to where they were required and stayed in tents and kept their planes in tents.
No. Sorry. I'm right and you're wrong.
Richthofen said it, about the way they lived.
I suppose I've read more about it than most.
