It has been reported that the movie portrays Canadian pilot Roy Brown killing the Baron. Modern research has shown that Brown could not have killed von Richthofen, as he did not fire at him from the angle at which the fatal bullet approached, or within the right timeframe, although he was given credit for it by the Royal Air Force. It is now believed that Australian machine gunner Cedric Popkin, or another Australian soldier, killed the baron.
