Thomas Rose, DFC, (27 January 1895 – 20 June 1968) was a British Flying Ace in World War I credited with 11 victories. Better known as Tommy Rose, he also won the King's Cup Air Race in 1935 and from 1939-45 was Chief Test Pilot with Phillips & Powis Aircraft Ltd - renamed Miles Aircraft Ltd in 1943. ==Involvement in World War I== Rose joined the RFC in 1917 and was posted to No. 64 Squadron later that year, flying DH9s. The squadron was involved in the Battle of Cambrai in a ground-strafing role. It subsequently re-equipped with SE5as, which led to greater involvement in aerial combat. He was awarded the DFC in November 1918, having become a deputy flight commander.〔Shores, C., Franks, N., Guest, R. ''Above the Trenches''. Grub Street, 1990. p.325 ISBN 0-948817-19-4〕
