At the centre of the ceiling â€" suspended upside down, is a halfâ€"scale replica of the D3 Albatross, ‘The Red Baron‘s‘ favourite plane. The south wall carries a 60ft. mural in which stylised portraits of Baron Manfred Freiherr von Richthofen, Lt. Col. Billy Bishop â€" an equally famous Canadian air ace, and Capt. Roy Brown who was credited with shooting down ‘the Baron‘, appear. This mural, which was painted by Mr. Miles also depicts various types of British and German aircraft which took part in the war. A special lighting _ effect emanating from «units located in the ceiling, creates the effect of clouds moving across its surface. Near the west entrance to the room hangs a 3ft. by 5ft. portrait of ‘The Bar(r‘ also painted by the desigrier. At the east end of the room are two separate collections of photographs â€" at the south end of the east wall, a rare collection obtained from the families of Canadian pilots who flew in the First World War, from the Imperial War museum in London, and from Mr. Stewart Taylor of Toronto. Immediately beside the bar at the north end of the east wall is an equally rare collection of photographs of ‘The Red Baron‘. These were obtained in Washington D.C. from a collector, _ Mr. Edgar Wischnowski, who made copy prints from the original glass negatives of photographs contained in the Richthofen family album. To the left of these photographs, encased in solid acrylic plastic, is a copy of ‘The Blue Max‘, the highest award for valour conferred by the German General Staff during the 1914â€"1918 war.

The Kaiser‘s speech at the Reichstag announcing the outbreak of war (an original recording), German, French, British, and Russian martial music, mingled with the sounds of aircraft, popular music of the time, guns firing, all combine to bring that chivalrous, gallant, romantic period of air history sharply into focus. The Red Baron Room opened officially yesterday, Wednesday October 13th, at 7.30. Entertainment is provided in the evenings and features Ravi Kuma and his ‘Dawn Patrol‘. Music ranges from songs and tunes of the First World War era, through _ the _ ‘Roaring Twenties‘, and the ‘Hungry Thirties‘ to the big band era of the Forties, and of course the songs of the Second World War and the music that followed those years to the present time. The decor of The Bar, and the pillars is designed to simulate the ‘plate‘ conâ€" struction of early metalâ€" fuselaged aircraft, Each pillar carries copies of wooden _ aeroplane propellers. The Standâ€"Up Bars are replicas of the tailâ€"plane assembly of the Albatross D3, ‘The Baron‘s plane‘. The Cloakroom and west enâ€" trance are finished in corrugated iron to resemble the interiors of Nissen huts, trenches and aeroplane hangers of the period. Tabletops are decorated with the aeroplane insignias of Britain and Germany.
