The "Blue Max", a coveted medal for achievement in flying, is ruthlessly sought by Bruno Stabel (George Peppard), a poor-boy German soldier who climbs out of the trenches and into the aristocratic air force. He is met with prejudice by the other contestants; wealthy snobs who look down upon his low economic stature. When he claims the title, he earns the respect of the General, and the General's wife, who wants to repay him in ways that the General might not appreciate.

First watched the movie as a Kid. it awakened my of love flying, to join the Air Force and study air war fare during both World Wars. Fascinating story on so many levels. Not for today's constant action audience, but a winner for history lovers.

Neddy Gair at his best supporting role! Brilliant! Wears the top hat to a tee!

Very refreshing!! Still deserves to be on top of the list of personal movie collection.
