Hans Martin Pippart Leutnant Hans Martin Pippart ( 14 May 1888 - 11 August 1918 ) Iron Cross was a pioneer aircraft manufacturer and early pilot .

He was a principal in the aeronautical firm of " Pippart und Noll " , which produced " Eindekker " airplanes . In 1913 , he set an aviation endurance record . He joined the German air forces at the start of the war . His initial assignment was as an instructor . He then served some time flying artillery coordination missions in two - seaters with FF ( A ) 220 in Galicia . Single seater scouts were also available to him . Aerial victories . Pippart scored his first win on 25 May 1917 , after he had been assigned to Kasta 1 . They were operating Roland D . II s on the Eastern Front against the Russians . By the end of 1917 , despite flying on a quiet sector , he had six victories to his credit — two planes and four observation balloons — and was transferred to Jasta 13 on the Western Front . On 21 February 1918 , he took up his balloon busting again , downing a gas bag . By the time he left Jasta 13 at the end of April , he was a double ace . His six victories over balloons made him an ace on them alone . On 18 April 1918 , he was reassigned to take the command of the Royal Prussian Jasta 19 . However , it seems there must have been some lag in his transfer , as victory number ten is scored to his old squadron on 20 April . On 2 May , he scored his first victory flying a Fokker D . VII for his new squadron . With four wins in May , one in June , and six in August , his score had soon grown to 21 . His death . Pippart ended his career as a balloon buster on 11 August 1918 . He shot down a balloon , but was hit by anti - aircraft fire and found he had to abandon his airplane at an altitude of 150 feet . His parachute failed to open . In his victory log , he was credited with seven enemy observation balloons destroyed , eight opposing fighter planes vanquished , and seven reconnaissance aircraft shot down .
