First Eagles - WWI and Early Years 1914 - 1920

This is a 4-Pack of Jasta 26 Albatros D.V's
 
The lozenge camo has been colored differently. And salmon colored rib taping being added.
 
1. Oblt. Bruno Loerzer DV D.2299/17
2. Ltn. Otto Fruhner DV D.2329/17
3. Swastika marking Unknown serial and pilot
4. Stock Jasta26 DV with changed lozenge color
 
Too me the stock lozenge camo seemed too dark. So I added a little more color to brighten it up.
Also use the TextureSets I included for a more glossy reflective finish.
 
Enjoy, quack74

Yes, that is a real name.
 
 
Geoffrey Hornblower Cock, 45 SquadronRFC, got all of his 13 victories in the Strutter, in which he was thehighest scoring ace. Cock was shot down over Warneton on 22 July 1917and made POW. This is a high resolution 2048 x 2048 skin. A standard resolution skin set will also be released.
 
 
 
 
 
 

This is a high resolution skin set for one of the earliest Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutters to serve, No. 9388 5 Wing RNAS. A standard resolution set will also be released.

This is a high resolution 2048 x 2048 skin set depicting Strutter 9723 with 3 Wing RNAS.

This is a high resolution 2048 x 2048 skin set depicting Strutter 9722 with 3 Wing RNAS.

This is a high resolution 2048 x 2048 skin set depicting Strutter 9407 as flown by R. Collishaw with 3 Wing RNAS. A standard resolution set will also be released.

A companion to the default set for the Strutter, this is a high resolution2048 x 2048 skin set for C Flight. There three flights, A,B, and C with six planes in each flight. The serial numbers are correct for the Squadron, but apart from B2 and B 6, I have not been able to conclusively tie the serial numbers to the individual flight aircraft.

A companion to the default set for the Strutter, this is a high resolution 2048 x 2048 skin set for A Flight. There were three flights, A,B, and C, with six planes in each flight. The serial numbers are correct for the Squadron, but I have not been able to conclusively tie the serial numbers to the individual flight aircraft.

The Sopwith 1 ½ Strutter is a teameffort. Dagaith began the project early in 2009 and I joined to helpwith research and skins. Unfortunately, his commitment to quality,and the pressure of time, made it impossible for Dagaith to finishthe 3d model before he was drafted into the army (Estonia) in June. Icontinued work on the cockpit and skins, but I was unable to make thefinal adjustments and generate the LOD files necessary for game play.[Dagaith used a later version of 3dMax that would not render in theversion I have.] Fortunately Laton completed the LODsand made it possible to get the Strutter ready for game play. Theflight model was done by Peter01, the gunner by P10ppy. The finalcockpit and skin sets are my efforts. Southside Bucky did Betatesting and offered valuable advice to tune up the model and skinsfor release.
 
Skins in highdefinition (2048 x 2948) and standard definition ((512 x 512) will bereleased along with the model. A hidef set for B Flight 43 Squadron RFC is enclosed as the default.Additional skins are available in the download section. The2048 and 512 skin sets are NOT interchangeable. You may reduce the hidef set down to 1024, but if you do, keep the associated decal sets.Because some detail could only be sustained by decals in the standarddef sets, these are different from the hi def sets.
 
There is an sound file with the 130 HP Clerget for your sound folder.
 
The Strutter was the first British aircraft with a synchronized Vickers gun. There were several versions. The first a two seat observation type, wasknown to the RNAS and the RFC as the 9400 series, and later to theFrench as the 1A2. The 9400 is the version modeled here. A later single seat version, adapted for bombing, called the 9700 series was first produced for the UK. The French not only built both versions, but made about twice as many (4500) as the British. The first French bomber versions were identified as 1B2 (with a crew of 2). The later French versions, similar to the 9700, were called 1B1 (a crew of just one). The 1B2 version will be released for First Eagles after this model. The 1B1/9700 type may come later. There was another variant, a single seat interceptor, used for Home Defense of the London area.,which was fitted with one or two Lewis guns and a cockpit aft of the wings, where the gunner was originally placed. All versions had air brakes on the inboard lower wings which are not operational on the model, and were often not favored by the aircrews because they created “mushy” handling.
 
A substantial set of skins will be released in conjunction with this model. Please refrain from posting additional skins until all of the original skins are posted.
Standard res 512 RFC and RNAS; Belgian 9400 series, French 1A2 and 1B2 all in the pipeline. They will be up ASAP.
 
Thanks for your patience.

This is a skin ONLY add-on to the Pfalz D.III created by the SFP1 Dev A-Team's Skunkworks.
 
Thanks to Capun1950 for permission to use the skin template. And thanks to the entire SFP1 A-Team for providing the Pfalz D.III model.
 
This Pfalz D.III is from Jasta 18. And should only be flown after March 1918. That is when Jasta 18 created their red and white color scheme with the black raven on the fuselage sides.
 
Enjoy, quack74
 
 

This is a pack of 9 Fokker DVII's of Jasta 18
and 1 captured DH-4 colored in Jasta 18 markings.
 
These aircraft and their color schemes were used from March of 1918 to the end of the war. Commander of Jasta 18 was Ltn. August Raben.
 
The DH-4 was shot down sometime in mid 1918. It was captured intact and repaired. It was repainted in Jasta 18's red and white along with the Jasta marking of a black raven. Also reported was a captured late model SPAD. Also repaired and used in Jasta 18 colors. That SPAD is not included in this pack because I'm not a 100% sure of this.
 
1. Ltn. August Raben (commander of Jasta 18)
2. Ltn. Hans Muller
3. Ltn. Heinz Kustner
4. Ltn. Hans Shultz
5. Ltn. Gunther von Buren
6. Ltn. Kurt Monnington
7. Black Chevron - pilot unknown
8. Black Band - pilot unknown
9. Stock Jasta18 DVII repaint - white tail with black "raven"
The stock Jasta18 DVII appears like Ltn. Raben's all
red fuselage. This is not correct for Jasta 18.
 
10. DH-4 in Jasta 18 colors with black "raven"
 
 
Enjoy this pack. quack74
