Excuse me, Tony, but Baron von Richthofen was the greatest fighter pilot of World War I, not of all time. If we're discussing all time, that "title" must go to the German WWII ace of all aces, Erich Hartmann, who shot down the staggering total of 352 Allied aircraft. He was incredibly gifted and skilled. He admittedly shot down many Russian aircraft being flown by inexperienced pilots, but the same could be said for most of the aces with a high number of kills.
I seriously doubt there are any trading cards of Bubi Hartmann, but who cares? --- Brian Powell
