Alan Scott (British Army officer) : ウィキペディア英語版
Alan John Lance Scott


Group Captain Alan John Lance Scott CB MC AFC (1884-16 January 1922) was an officer in the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force during World War I and the following years.〔(TheHistoryNet | Aerial Combat | William "Billy" Bishop: World War I Canadian Ace Fighter Pilot )〕
Scott was born in Christchurch, New Zealand on 29 June 1884〔(Alan John Lance Scott )〕 and was originally an officer in the British Army's Sussex Yeomanry, Scott later transferred to the Royal Flying Corps. Scott never became a very good pilot; in fact, in training, he crashed and broke both legs. He continued training on canes, and had to be assisted into the cockpit. However, he was a pugnacious dogfighter whose solo missions sometimes got him into trouble. For instance, on 28 May 1917, he survived being Leutnant Karl Allmenröder's 21st victory.
In July 1917 Scott was awarded the Military Cross - ''Capt. (temp Maj.) Alan John Lance Scott Yeo., and R.F.C. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He has on several occasions attacked and destroyed enemy aircraft and taken successful photographs under heavy fire. He has constantly shown the greatest courage in attacking numerous hostile machines single-handed, during which on two occasions his own machine was considerably damaged. His great coolness, dash, and resource have set an excellent example to his squadron.''〔London Gazette Issue 30204 24 July 1917〕
Scott was a flight commander on No. 43 Squadron RFC until 10 March 1917 when he took up command of No. 60 Squadron RFC. He remained as No. 60 Squadron's commander until 11 July 1917, the day after he was wounded in action.

From some time in 1917 to 1918, Scott was the Commandant of the Central Flying School.〔(The Royal Air Force - History Section )〕 Notably, Scott acted as Winston Churchill's flying instructor.〔(The Churchill Papers: A catalogue )〕 In 1920, Scott's book "Sixty Squadron RAF: A history of the squadron from its formation" was published.〔(Search Results )〕
Scott died on 16 January 1922 in London, England aged 38.〔
