 Thumbnails 1,3,4,5,6 ==> look like Royal Aircraft Factory (RAF) S.E.5a, though some details are puzzling me :/
The "pronouced V shape" of the wings, and the wheel support architecture not matching with it.

Thumbnail 2,7 ==> I'd say an Avro 504, but the tail is the type of the Avro 521. The problem is that it had been built only 1 proto of the 521, which had crashed in 1916 :/ Reconstruction?

Thumbnail 10 ==> this monoplane is a Fokker E I or E II of 1915/16

No idea for the plane in Thumbnail 8,9,11,12

 IMDb also mentions the SE5 as being the plane used in the movie in the Royal Flying Corps but there are a lot of details that don't match I think.

Angled shape of the wings - should be straight I think as you said sixcyl.
The engine and therefore the propeller is mounted too high.
The external radiator in the movie looked 'false'
Tailplane is too square.

Unless there were variations in design I'm guessing this is a 1920s or 1930s type of biplane that has been modified to look like a WWI fighter? There were at least three examples used in the flying scenes in the movie and I doubt that actual WWI museum exhibits or similar rare planes would be used in the dog-fights? Some crash scenes may have been models but if so they were rather convincing.

 The aircraft were supplied by Personal Plane Services Ltd. (credits from the movie).

I have found a reference that at least one 'Stampe' modified to look like a SE5A was used for "Aces High" so that probably applies to the complete squadron. I need to check but the Avro possibly was not used in any flying scenes.

 Definitely a Belgian Stampe - it looks very much like a Tiger Moth. A museum near here has a Stampe and an RAF and I saw both in May this year. The SE5a flew as part of the display.
