The term ace (now commonly flying ace) was first used by French newspapers during World War I, describing Adolphe Pégoud as l'as ('the ace'), after he downed five German aircraft. When aircraft began to shoot or force down other aircraft, systems to count "air victories" were subsequently developed. The American qualification of five victories eventually became the standard, even though other air services had previously used differing figures.

  • El terme as fou utilitzat per primer cop per la premsa francesa durant la Primera Guerra Mundial, descrivint com l'as, després d'haver abatut 5 aparells alemanys. Al principi de la Primera Guerra Mundial encara no existien els combats aeris i els aparells eren únicament de reconeixement. Tan bon punt els aparells van començar a ser capaços d'abatre o de forçar a aterrar altres aparells, sistemes d'acreditació de victòries van aparèixer. (ca)
