David Stewart (RAF officer)
Captain David Arthur Stewart MC & Bar DFC AFC (8 March 1890 – 24 December 1924) was a World War I flying ace credited with 16 aerial victories. Remarkably, they were all scored while he was flying bombers instead of fighters.〔http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/england/stewart1.php Retrieved 12 January 2010.〕
==World War I flying service==
He scored his first two victories over German fighters on 1 and 3 August 1916 while assigned to No. 20 Squadron as an Air Mechanic 2nd Class observer in the front seat of a F.E.2b. He did not score again for another 16 months; he resumed his victory skein on 6 January 1918 while piloting an Airco DH.4 for No. 18 Squadron. On 6 March 1918, he destroyed a Pfalz D.III and drove three other German fighters down out of control. He continued to win through 27 March, when he achieved his eleventh win. After a two month lapse, he closed out his tally with a victory on 28 May and double victories on 30 May and 11 June 1918. Fifteen of his triumphs were over enemy fighters; he destroyed eight and drove seven down out of control. He also destroyed an enemy two-seater. Among his observer gunners were fellow aces Reginald Maxwell, Harry Mackay, Lewis Collins, and William Miller.〔
He was awarded the Military Cross on 22 April 1918, a Bar in lieu of a second award exactly two months later, and a Distinguished Flying Cross on 2 November 1918.〔
