The last great fighter of World War 1, the Fokker D.VII was said to make a mediocre pilot a good one and a good pilot an ace.  The D.VII was easy to fly, featured a high rate of climb, and could be thrown into a full speed dive without any fear of structural failure. When it began arriving on the front in the spring of 1918 German pilots began to rack up kills so quickly that the Allies feared a second Fokker Scourge had begun.  Although it arrived too late to alter the course of the war, it was so successful that one of the terms of the Treaty of Versailles was that Germany had to hand over all of its remaining Fokker biplanes to the Allies.  Shown here is a D.VII flown by Erich Lowenhardt, Germany's third highest scoring ace of the war.
