Best Answer

Manfred Von Richthofen was the best pilot because he was the only person to through a rock out the window of his plane, hit another plane's engine with it and bring down that plane. That is what made him very famous. Then he went on to shoot down many many planes during the war before he was shot down.

Who was in the flying circus of World war 1?

The "Red Baron", Manfred von Richthofen, commanded the Flying Circus. It was a fighter group, made up of three fighter squadrons, with about fifty pilots all together. von Richthofen had had his airplane painted all over blood red, for psychological effect. The other pilots in his group also painted their aircraft garishly, some combination of red and another color. Their leader had the only all red plane. Thus, they were unmistakable when encountered by the enemy in the air, and struck fear into allied pilots. Because their planes reminded allied pilots of brightly painted circus wagons, the allies gave Jasta 1 the nickname "The Flying Circus". Other pilots included Manfred's brother Lothar, and the last commander of the group was Herman Goering, who went on to be a top Nazi in WWII and commander of the German Air Force. Goering was the one well known legitimate hero the Nazis had, who lent respectability to the Nazis on their rise to power.
