The original Red Baron remains one of the most enjoyable sims of all time, and to create a sequel worthy of it Sierra had to do more than update it for today's faster machines.
If the graphics in Red Baron II left something to be desired, this deficiency is more than made up for by its incredibly engrossing gameplay.
Whether it is the performance of the aircraft, the skill of the pilots, or the disturbing but historically accurate sight of pilots hurtling from a burning plane to the ground, Red Baron II models World War One air combat.

Red Baron II, like its main competitor Flying Corps Gold, is not without its share of problems, but Red Baron II did manage to give me one of the best experiences I have ever had playing a flight simulator.
Though Red Baron II is currently not 3D accelerated (a patch is promised for the 2nd quarter of '98) the graphics are solid and the rolling green hills of the French countryside offer a nice alternative to the all-too-common desert terrain found in jet-fighter sims.
Unlike the rudders in the original Red Baron, Red Baron II keyboard rudders move in increments of 25% and are very difficult to use effectively.

 NOVA | Who Killed the Red Baron? | Explore Competing Theories | PBS
The rumors may have begun when German pilots from the Baron's "circus" reported witnessing the triplane's relatively smooth crash landing; at first, this fueled hopes that the Baron had been captured alive, and later, the speculation that he had been murdered.
Subsequent research has suggested that Franklyn probably confused the Red Baron's demise with his battery's downing of a German airplane the day after the Baron's death in a slightly different location.
One explanation is that a pair of triplanes from the Baron's "circus," perhaps including the Baron himself, briefly dived on the two RE8s prior to encountering the Sopwith Camels of RAF No.

Hermann von Richthofen, grand-nephew of the Baron and former German ambassador to NATO, reminisces about his great uncle's rise from mounted cavalry officer to master of a completely new style of warfare that pitted fast, maneuverable flying machines against each other in deadly duels in the sky.
In a fascinating forensic examination aided by aviation historian Norman Franks, coauthor of The Red Baron's Last Flight, the program lays out the evidence and examines rival notions of his death (see Explore Competing Theories).
The inquest draws on rarely seen original documents and reports from eyewitnesses to explore the nature of the Baron's wound, the direction and range from which the bullet was fired, and the possible candidates for the Baron's killer.

 Pricey 'Red Baron' recalls war exploits - Entertainment News, International News, Media - Variety
By BERLIN -- Director Niki Muellerschoen's "The Red Baron" will not only reintroduce one of Germany's most famous historical figures to a nation that has long forgotten his exploits, it also promises to be one of the most expensive Teutonic films of all time.
The legend of the Red Baron is well known to auds around the world, thanks in part to pics like 1966's George Peppard starrer "The Blue Max" and Roger Corman's 1971 effort, "The Red Baron," not to mention the aerial fantasies of a certain Charles M. Schultz-created beagle.
For the film's stars, however, "The Red Baron" is not about glorifying the military but about the competition among young men at a time when the world's first pilots faced each other in combat with a chivalrous respect unthinkable in today's air forces.

A team of researchers, including a University of Missouri-Columbia neuropsychologist, found that Baron Manfred von Richthofen never would have put himself in the position to be killed that day had he not suffered a severe head injury nine months earlier.
The Baron also exhibited "target fixation" the day he was shot down, locking a fleeing British pilot in his sights and pursuing him into British territory at tree line level, making himself an easy target to his enemy.
Orme also said research indicates the Baron was more moody after suffering the head injury, another classic symptom of a traumatic brain injury.
