    1. (S!) ALL hi ;-)
       
      This is a Fokker E I of Flik 4, Austro Hungarian air force around 1915.
      The A-H painted most of their planes tops green.
       
       
      Special thank you to Laton for giving me the opportunity to work
      With him again on this plane its been a great working with you.
       
      Special thank you to my friend Bob Pearson for allowing me to put his
      Profile in of this plane.
       
       
       
      Enjoy!!! ;-)

    2. If you're like me, you probably found yourself turning the original FE music volume to OFF within minutes of installing the game and encountering each screen.
       
      So, I've scoured for some replacement music to increase those minutes to possibly hours before you ditch the music!
       
      Here are some of the more intense classical music I could find (from varied composers) to appropriately fit the mood of each screen, attempting to give FE more "atmosphere". Some screens will have a determined action feel and others with a sense of glory/duty/achievement - at least that's what's intended!
       
      I've only slightly edited each tune so it runs smoother and I reduced the bit rate to shrink them down to size. However, nothing's perfect.
       
      By the way, the composers I emailed and managed to get in touch with were really great about allowing me to use their music files for what will hopefully be your benefit. They've done a terrific job.
       
       
      See/hear what you think of it... hopefully, it will put you in a flying mood!
       
       
      Cheers for browsing & thank God for gaming composers!

    3. A mission for First Eagles.
       
      Bucky's quick mission No.1. 19 squadron Dolphin Vs Jasta 6 Fokker D.VIII.
       
      =======================================================
       
      This mission, although a 'what if' scenario is quite a plausible aerial engagement that
      is accurate regarding geography and timing relating to the two units involved
      (19sqn & Jasta 6).
       
       
      Jasta 6 received the Fokker D.VIII (or the Fokker E.V as it was first called) at the
      end of July 1918, Jasta 6 being the first to receive it. However, on August the 16th
      they lost a pilot because of wing failure, and again on the 19th...The E.V was then
      quickly taken out of service until the weakness was diagnosed and cured.
      It was accepted back in service in early October, and by the end of the war a mere
      80 had been delivered. There is no record of it being used in combat during the last
      weeks of the war.
       
      So to maintain historical accuracy this mission takes place the day before the wing
      failure incidents; (15/8/18.) At this time Jasta 6 were based at Bernes, a few miles
      north of St Quentin, which in turn, is about 30 miles from Douai
       
      19 Squadron, using the Sopwith Dolphin at this time, were based at Savy, about 20
      miles from Douai.
       
       
      You're flying an offensive patrol with your two 19 sqn wingmen, at 08.25 on Thursday
      15/8/18. You have just crossed the German front lines at 12,000 feet near Douai,
      looking for trouble. You're mindful of the fact that there have been recent rumours
      within the RAF of a new German monoplane fighter in operation on the western front,
      reported as being very manoeuvrable... You're about to find out those rumours are
      horribly true!....
       
      =======================================================
       
      To use this mission as intended, you'll need:
       
      Flanders terrain.
      By Edward
       
      The Sopwith Dolphin.
      By Capun and his team. Available from the Skunkworks site (Registration required).
       
      The Fokker D.VIII.
      By Laton. Available from the Combat Ace download section.
       
      The 19 Sqn Blue Nose Dolphin skin.
      By Gambit168. Available from the Combat Ace download section.
       
      All three Fokker D.VIII Jasta 6 skins.
      By V. Deutschmark. Available from the Combat Ace download section.
       
      A big thank you to all of the above artists for their most excellent contributions to this
      great game.
       
      =======================================================
       
      To install, simply unzip the downloaded file to:
      C:/Program Files/Thirdwire/WW1/Missions.
       
      Or unzip to your desktop and drag and drop, or copy, then paste into your missions
      folder.
       
      =======================================================
       
      Feel free to change the mission anyway you like, and should you find anything wrong
      with it, please let me know.
       
      EDIT, 11/4/07: One thing I didn't realise when I first put this mission together is that
      unless you tell your wingmen to 'Engage Air', they won't fire a single shot!
      So remember to hit the TAB button and select '1' if you want some help from your
      Squadron comrades...Think of it as firing a flare gun!
       
      Have fun!
       
      Bucky.

      This is a Fokker E III Uffz Ernst Udet, KeK Habsheim March 1916.
      The red stripe on this plane could have been black, but most historians
      Believe it was red and in most all profiles you see it as red.
       
       
      Special thank you to Laton for giving me the opportunity to work
      With him again on this plane its been a great working with you.
