Photos of WWI Pilots/Aircraft/Casualties

I have been back to this site on a few occasions and found it very interesting, some of the pictures are of top quality for their age? Or is this done in photoshop or other programmes, still they are excellent photos.

When I see old photos of things like that,I always wonder if the people in the photos are still living and what their lives are like now.I love looking at old pictures.You never know ,could see someone you know.

I'll definitely have to keep my eyes peeled for this one!!!

As one of the most famous pilots of WW2, I guess the Red Baron knew he fulfilled his duties well and was content with it in the end!

I'm not sure how they found all of those, I agree, too good to be true!
