Answer 1

Google (wwii aces)
there's one there that lists them by country, service and aircraft. I was gong to give you a link, but you need to learn to do research, gather data,assimilate it, and apply it to a specific problem. Otherwise, you're wasting your time going to school.

Answer 2

for the love of... don't use wikipedia... check out the Commemorative Air Force (www.caf.org), then maybe lexis-nexis or something... wikipedia is not the best source... google is better... if you use wikipedi at all use it as a way to locate additional sources for further research... especially if its a thing for school... my best advice, if you want good info is to go to a college library (if possible) and ask the librarian to set you up on an inter-library database in which you can review the different books, article, etc. availible at different libraries...

Garrison has a good point... many pilots (especially fighter pilots) flew more than one aircraft during the war... the P-51, P-47, and P-38 were all Army Air Corps and many Army fighter pilots flew more than one of those aircraft... you should be aware of that...

Answer 3

All of those planes were only built during the war.

The standing of "ace" went with the pilot and not the aircraft so I doubt you will get any figures for "aces of the planes" because I don't believe the kills were broken out by type and model of airplane.

Answer 4

Richard Bong was a P-38 Ace in the Pacific. That's all I remember.

Answer 5

Hm... I think u can try to search that in Goggle or Yahoo

And try to search in any aviation of WW2 sites although its maybe a little difficult to search what planes they fly

Good luck
