I guess you didn't need the Ida Lupino clue 19...

An aircraft that I'd never really given much thought to...but it seems to be kind of a neat little airplane...
Not much info on it either, and I was kinda runnin outa clues too...

The floor is yours sir...
Thanks, proptop; good question on your part. Okay, this one should go pretty quickly; it's a well known story. Thanks; Ernie P.


Question: What warbird pilot do I describe?

Clues:
  1. This pilot is noted, not for his score, but for his brilliance.
  2. In fact, I have found no record of his ever having scored a victory.
  3. He produced an innovation which had a more profound impact upon the combat arms than might at first be realized.
