No, Billy Bishop fought with the Red Baron but did not shoot him down. The Red Baron was shot down later, probably by Australian anti-aircraft gunners on the ground but possibly by RAF pilot Roy Brown, a Canadian, who was attacking the Red Baron.
it is belived to be Roy Brown (a Canadian pilot) but has been proved wrong. we don't know for sure who shot him but it was one of the three Austrailian gunmen on the ground, know one knows for sure which one
Captain A. Roy Brown shot down the Red Baron on Sunday, April 21, 1918.
It has now been proven that the Red Baron was killed by a rifle bullet fired from the ground.
He didn't invent anything. He was a fighter pilot, not an inventor.

The name of the Red Baron is Manfred von Richthofen.
The Red Baron, or Baron Von Richtofen, was the top pilot of Germany during WW1.
The World War I German fighter pilot widely known as the Red Baron was Manfred Albrecht Freiherr von Richthofen.
Billy Bishop was credited with 72 aerial victories during World War I, while the Red Baron (Manfred von Richthofen) was credited with 80 aerial victories. Bishop was a Canadian flying ace and the Red Baron was a legendary German fighter pilot.
the red baron was a feared pilot. He was a spectacular pilot because of his precise aiming at the dogfights, no one knows much of his background, :( but I think the best way to learn about the Red Baron is to check out (translated) books in Germany :) an ace of the ages!
He broke away from his jasta (squadron) to chase down a pone pilot over enimy lines, and ground troops shot him down
I can't think of any fatal mistakes, he was an excellent pilot, and was killed by pure chance from a rifle bullet fired from the ground.
The name Red Baron originated from Baron Manfred Von Richthofen. The Baron flew a Fokker Plane that was painted red, he was a WWI German Pilot that died at the age of 25 years.
