Looks at the life and war record of one of the legendary 'Aces' of the First World War who was rated the supreme marksman and perfectionist whose tactics encouraged World War Two pilots such as Bader, Tuck, and 'Sailor' Malan to ignore 'what the book said' and fell back on the fluid and sensible tactics evolved by McCudden.
