William Willi Barker--single pilot and accessories--RETIRED--LAST ONE!!
$50.00

Here we have William ‘Willi’ Barker!  One of the most highly decorated Canadian pilots of WW1, with 33 confirmed kills and several balloons to his tally.  Barker was awarded the Victoria Cross, MC, and DSO during his career in WWI, plus several other awards.  The VC was awarded when during a dogfight flying a Sopwith Snipe, Barker was attacked by 15 German aircraft.  Barker managed to shoot down 3 of the enemy planes and was wounded 4 times during this engagement before managing to make his escape.  After the war, he teamed up with fellow Canadian pilot Billy Bishop and the two went into business together.
Unfortunately, Barker never fully recovered from his wounds suffered during the VC dogfight and was plagued with the effects of these until his untimely death, at age 35 in a flying accident.
