  • Summary

  • Much has been said about “the right stuff” that separates fighter pilots from everybody else.People have tried to define the fighter pilot archetype as aggressive, type A, and arrogant. They aresupposed to be playboys and hard partiers, and certainly, many fighter pilots have fit that mold. MaxImmelmann wasn’t one of them. Small, quiet, a vegetarian and tee-totaler, not many would expectImmelmann to be the aviator to strike fear into the hearts of British pilots on the Western front.Nicknamed the Eagle of Lille, not by the German propaganda machine, but by those very same Britishpilots, Immelmann, was not the typical fighter pilot.
