Just to mention the BBC are broadcasting this:
WW1 Flying Aces Falling
Edward Mannock VC and James McCudden VC rose from modest backgrounds to become two of Britain's greatest fighter aces in World War One.
As the number of their victories grew, so did their chances of dying in flames. Timewatch tells the story of their battle to survive against the odds, and of the 90-year-old mystery surrounding the death of one of them.
It's on BBC2 at 8.00GMT but also on BBC Iplayer on the web here:

I've seen clips and it looks good.

Stephen
