First Eagles by Thirdwire

Gerhard 'Kuken' Hubrich was an 12 victory ace flying with the Seefrontstaffel.

A quick disclaimer.
 
The cockpit isn't at it's best, there are limitations of the Albatros model that prevent a few things. For one, the cockpit padding cannot be hidden, so you'll be seeing the external models padding instead of my own high res padding. Secondly, the MG stocks can't be hidden, so I didn't see any reason to model much more than what you see sofar.
 
TK said he'd fix this in the next patch, and when he does, I'll do a revisit and fix these things, but for now you'll have to live with them.
 
Anywho, hope y'all enjoy the cockpit as much as I did making it. :)

A mission for First Eagles + Expansion Pack 1 + either; Nov 08 patch or Peter01 FM's pack
without patch.
 
Bucky's Quick Mission No.9: 'Voss vs 56'.
 
Released 23/9/08. The 91st anniversary of the action depicted in this mission.
 
============================================================
 
Introduction:
 
This Mission is a re-enactment of an actual aerial combat that took place at about 6:30pm,
on Sunday, 23rd September, 1917, in the skies above Poelcapelle and Westroosebeke,
about 7-8 miles NE of Ypres, in Belgium.
 
The action involved seven SE5a's of 56 Sqn, the RFC's premier fighter unit, and Lt. Werner
Voss, a 48 victory ace and a holder of the coveted Ordre Pour Le Merite (Blue Max).
 
This epic encounter, arguably the most famous dogfight in history, has been the subject of
much speculation and controversy for ninety odd years now, and shows no signs of abating
any time soon. This is evidenced by the fact that even though the combat reports of all the
allied pilots involved (and other aircrew that witnessed it) still exist, there are some
historians and enthusiasts that think Voss had run out of fuel and/or ammunition, and even
that he was trying to surrender(!) before he was killed.
Whatever the truth of the matter, the allied pilots combat reports are all of the opinion that
the Fokker Triplane's excellent climb capability would have allowed Voss to withdraw from
the combat at any time with relative ease. Yet he chose to fight to the end... Maybe he just
had a little too much confidence in his own ability?
 
Werner Voss' life story in general, and his final combat in particular, make very interesting
reading. I highly recommend the book 'September Evening', by Barry Diggens' to anyone
who would like to read further on the subject. Apart from containing a detailed blow by blow
account of the combat, it also includes the complete combat reports of all the allied pilots
involved.
 
============================================================
 
To set the scene:
 
At this time Voss was Staffelfuhrer of Jasta 10, based at Heule, near Courtrai. He had
achieved his 48th victory that morning (23rd Sept) by shooting down a DH4. It was his first
day back on the front line since going on leave on 11th of September. Probably eager to
rack up his victory tally, he fatefully decided to fly one last patrol...
 
Voss took off at approximately 17:05, in the pre-production Fokker Triplane, serial No.
FI. 103/17 which he had been using since late August, and in which he had achieved his last
10 victories. At about the same time, thirty or so miles away at Estree Blanche, 56 Sqn
were leaving the ground for their final patrol of the day.
 
At 18:25, Voss encountered two SE's of 60 Sqn. The ensuing combat which lasted all of two
minutes, ended with both British fighters disengaging after being severely damaged.
Unfortunately for Voss, The flight of SE5a's from 56 Sqn, led by Cpt. James McCudden VC,
had witnessed the brief furball and were not slow in coming to the aid of their two stricken
comrades...
 
The infamous ten minute dogfight that followed is excellently summed up in this excerpt
from James McCudden's book; 'Flying Fury':
 
"The German pilot (Voss) saw us and turned in a most disconcertingly quick manner, not a
climbing nor Immelmann turn, but a sort of flat half spin. By now the German triplane was
in the middle of our formation, and its handling was wonderful to behold. The pilot seemed
to be firing at all of us simultaneously, and although I got behind him a second time, I
could hardly stay there for a second. His movements were so quick and uncertain that none
of us could hold him in sight at all for any decisive time."
 
Inevitably though, odds of seven to one were too great, even for a pilot of Voss' prowess.
And especially considering the high calibre fighter pilots he was up against. It was 2/Lt.
Arthur Rhys-Davids who eventually got Voss in his sights long enough to deliver the coup
de grace. Voss fell to earth just inside the British lines, NW of Frezenberg, at a place called
Plum Farm. He was 20 years old.
 
In homage to Voss, McCudden stated in his book:
 
"I shall never forget my admiration for that German pilot, who single-handed fought seven
of us for ten minutes, and also put some bullets through all of our machines. His flying was
wonderful, his courage magnificent, and in my opinion he is the bravest German airman
whom it has been my privilege to see fight."
 
High praise indeed.
 
The battle hardened 56 Sqn pilots that Voss faced that evening were all aces except for
Cronyn. Indeed, by the end of the war they had amassed 172 victories between them.
They are listed below with their total end of war victory numbers, the serial number, and
identification letter of the SE5a they were actually flying on 23rd Sept 1917.
 
Cpt. J.B. McCudden. (58) flew B4863 marked 'G'
Cpt. G.H. Bowman. (32) flew B2 marked 'M'
Lt. R.T.C. Hoidge. (27) flew B506 marked 'N'?
2/Lt. A.P.F. Rhys-Davids. (22) flew B525 marked 'I'
Lt. R.S. Maybery. (21) flew B1 marked 'K'
Lt. K.K. Muspratt. (8) flew A8944 marked 'H'
Lt. V.P. Cronyn. (4) flew A4563 marked 'L'
 
============================================================
 
Mission guidlines:
 
WARNING!
It has to be said that it's almost impossible to survive this mission, (well, for me anyway!)
and for that reason I hesitated to upload it at all. But with the 91st anniversary of Voss'
demise approaching, I decided to go for it.
I created it using the latest 'Peter01 FM's pack', 'Very Hard AircraftObject.ini', and
'70% GunData.ini files'. Consequently, I haven't lasted more than a minute during the
mission testing! I'm no great flyer though, so with a bit more ability, or without those
mods?...
 
When the mission begins, you'll be flying at approximately 6,500ft. We'll assume that the
encounter with the two 60 Sqn SE's has just ended, and the 56 Sqn flight is winging its way
towards you...Utilise your height advantage, and don't fly straight and level for more than a
few seconds!
 
The 56 Sqn pilots were all amazed at Voss' aerobatics...You'll have to be equally agile to
have even the slightest glimmer of a chance!
 
============================================================
 
Compromises and game limitations:
 
I had a go at including the legendary 'red nose Albatros' that featured briefly in the furball
that fateful evening. However, it only distracted the SE's from giving you (Voss) their full
attention. And seeing as it only played a very small part in the combat, I decided not to
use it.
 
The 56 Sqn SE5a identification letters used are all correct for the pilots involved in the
combat (See above for pilot/ID list). However, on 23/9/17, 56 Sqn were still using a dumbell
marking on the rear fuselage. This was changed to the more familiar white rear fuselage
band on 25/9/17.
 
The actual combat between Voss and 56 Sqn commenced at about 6:30pm, but I've had to
set the mission time at 5:30, otherwise you'd be flying in the dark.
 
I've also used a bit of artistic license regarding height advantage and the order of events,
but essentially it's you (Voss) against seven enemy planes, just as it was for him.
 
============================================================
 
Mission requirements:
 
To fly this mission as intended, you'll need the following mods and skins:
 
Flanders terrain.

Many thanks to all the above artists for their most excellent contributions to this great game.
 
Although not essential, for extra realism and immersion I would recommend the following
mods, available from the Combat Ace, Downloads site:
 
'Thicker, Fuller Clouds'.
By ShrikeHawk.
Found in: 'Maps/Terrains'. 'Environmental Mods'.
Excellent mod that greatly improves the "cotton wool ball" clouds effect.
 
'FE Sounds'.
By yours truly.
Found in: 'Sound Mods'.
 
For maximum realism I would also recommend that this mission be played with all gameplay
settings set to 'Hard'.

============================================================
 
I hope you enjoy flying this mission and find it both challenging and enjoyable enough to play
it more than once. I've tried to make it as historically accurate and authentic as the game
will allow.
Feel free to change any of the parameters as you wish.
 
I would welcome any suggestions or general feedback, good, bad or indifferent, via any one
of the FE forums.
 
Viel Glueck!

By TexMurphy & Monty CZ

This skin represents Carl Degelow's Fokker D7 of Jasta 40. the skin was created with perhaps more accurate 5 color German lozenge camo(there is considerable debate on the subject).
Degelow was Staffel commander of Jasta 40. Before the war he worked in the U.S. as an Industrial chemist. He was the last German soldier to recieve the Blue Max. He is credited with 30 victories.

This "pack" includes both the 1024 X 768 size hangar and loading bitmap images for the Bristol M1c by Sabre51.

This a skin of an Albatros D-V flown by Joseph Veltjens of Jasta 15.

Julius Arigi (1895-1981) was the second highest scoring ace in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Unlike most aces, Arigi was an NCO. On August 22, 1916, enemy aircraft were reported to be approaching the Flik 6 airfield. Arigi sought permission to take off and attack them. Because there were no officers available, to fly with him as observers, permission was denied. Acting against direct orders, Arigi took off with another NCO in his in his Hansa-Brandenburg C.I and shot down 5 enemy Farmans in less than one half hour. He survived the war, as the most highly decorated NCO in the Austrian Army Air Service, with 32 confirmed victories. No Hanroit HD-1s were among them.
My time machine is no longer operational. These skins are interpretations, well-grounded interpretations, but certainly a mix of accuracy and flaws. I am aware of two variations from the photos and other sources. The rudder depicted is round at the trailing edge, rather than the straight. Both rounded and straight rudders were used on Alb D.III’s, but I would have preferred to use the straight edge type because there are photos of this plane which clearly show the straight edged rudder. Available models do not offer the straight rudder. Some Alb DIII OEF were filed modified by removal of the prop spinner, because some came loose in flight. Again the available models do not offer this variation. Modifications of this magnitude beyond my present skill. If you can do it, please contact me.
Many sources were consulted in the preparation of these skins, including: Dr. Martin O'Connor, Air Aces of the Austro-Hungarian Empire 1914-1918, Austro-Hungarian Aces of World War 1 by Chris Chant, Mark Rolfe (Illustrator) / Paperback / Osprey Publishing (February 2002), Above the War Fronts by Norman L. R. Franks, Russell Guest, Gregory Alegi / Hardcover / Grub Street (September 1997), Windsock Datafile #19 Albatros D.III (Oef)/ Grosz/Colours & Markings by Ray Rimmel , The Aerodrome Forum, R.N. Pearson profiles and other material on line.
 
Just drop the folder in your Albatros_D3OAW folder and select Julius Arigi, in the loadout screen. There is no need to edit the ini.

note there are two MAPFRIENDLYICON.TGA icons in the package (MAPFRIENDLYICON_F.tga(French) and MAPFRIENDLYICON_B.tga(British))
you will need too rename the chosen one to MAPFRIENDLYICON.TGA

(S!) ALL hi ;-)
 
This is Captain Leslie Holden SE5a ( Red Devil ) late 1918.
 
Hats off to the guys at Third Wire for bit-mapping this so well
It was fun to work on.
 
Special thank you to my friend Bob Pearson for allowing me to put
His profile in of this plane.
 
There is also a dock from the book High Adventure that explains where
The name Red Devil came from.
 
Enjoy!!! ;-)
