    1. 79a Squadriglia NIEUPORT 27 skin pack for FE 2

      Nieuport 27 skins of 79a Squadriglia for EmID Nieuport N27_FAS First Eagles 2
      This is a  pack of skins focused on the history of the Italian 79a Squadriglia. 
      Historical notes: 
      79a Squadriglia of the "Corpo Aeronautico Militare" was formed in November 1916 at the Central Flying School in Arcade, Italy. 
      On 13 January 1917, it was deployed to Istrana, with its area of operations being the Asiago Plateau near the ongoing Battles of the Isonzo. 
      The new unit flew its first combat mission on 20 January 1917. On 28 March 1917, 3a Sezione was detached for city defense duties. On 10 April 1917, the squadron was attached to 10o Gruppo. A month later, it was transferred to 7o Gruppo. On 2 June 1917, Antonio Reali scored his first aerial victory for the squadron's initial success. On 3 December 1917, the squadron was posted to the 15o Gruppo. In June 1918, it was assigned to the Massia da Caccia (Fighter Mass) before passing to control of the 23o Gruppo. 
      The squadron served through war's end. Its wartime record was 4,411 combat sorties flown, with 47 victories achieved in 227 aerial combats. The squadron had suffered five killed. The squadron produced the WW1 Nieuport 27 "Ace of Aces" Marziale Cerutti with 17 victories with this Nieuport model.

    5. Nieuport 27 skins of Escadrille 471-Second Lafayette Escadrille- for First Eagles 2

      Nieuport 27 skins of Escadrille 471 "Second Lafayette Escadrille" for First Eagles 2
      This is a full squadron pack of skins & decals focused on the history of the "Second Lafayette Escadrille" - Escadrille 471.
      Historical notes:
      STRIKE FROM THE AIR THE EARLY YEARS OF THE US AIR FORCES by TERRY C. TREADWELL 
      "On 15 February 1918, three former members of the Lafayette Escadrille – Lieutenants Meredith Dowd, Joseph Gill and George Willard – were transferred and joined the 2nd Escadrille Américaine, which was renumbered Esc.N.471 and became known unofficially as the Second Lafayette Escadrille. According to some historians, the squadron accounted for six enemy planes and one balloon, but little else is known about it. How or why it was given the same number as the original Lafayette Escadrille is not known, but it is thought it may have been initiated by the three pilots – Dowd, Gill and Willard – who were transferred to the squadron. There is one other possible explanation, however; the Camp Retranché de Paris Escadrilles numbered from 461 to 470 and the N.471 was created out of increasing demands to defend Paris. It is an accepted fact that both sides were desperate for pilots as the aircrew loss rate was extremely high. It was because of this that the 2nd Escadrille Américaine was created and fifteen other pilots were assigned to the squadron. The ground crews and support personnel were all French and the squadron was put under the command of Lieutenant Le Comte Sanche de Gramont as part of Groupe de Chasse 21, which was under the command of Colonel LeClerc. The squadron formed up at Le Bourget Field and began the task as ‘Defenders of Paris’, with particular attention being paid to the night raids carried out by German bombers. The aircraft supplied to the squadron were Nieuport 27s, used at the time as flight trainers. The mechanics soon fitted night landing flares on the lower wings, but these proved to be totally useless. Their tireless patrols were barely more than just a ‘flexing of muscles’ and the Germans continued to advance; so much so, in fact, that the squadron had to relocate to Château-Thierry, some 37 miles away. Things were now so desperate that orders went out to the pilots to fly low level along the German trenches and shoot everything that moved. This tactic, of course, was bound to take its toll in casualties, and the first to fall was the commanding officer Lieutenant Comte de Gramont on 3 July 1918. His place was taken by Lieutenant Walter L. Avery, USAS, who soon proved his worth by taking part in one of the fiercest ground-strafing missions that took place appropriately on 14 July, Bastille Day.
       For nearly two months the squadron flew virtually continuous strafing missions against the German ground forces, and by the middle of July the tide had been stemmed. The German advance had been halted and they had begun their retreat. The threat to Paris was over and the squadron was disbanded, the Americans being sent to various fighter squadrons. The 2nd Lafayette Escadrille was no more, but it had proved its worth. The transfer of the American pilots from the Lafayette Escadrille to the various USAS squadrons was held up for a period of more than six weeks. They were regarded as ‘civilian pilots’ no longer in the service of France but not recognized as members of the US Air Service. The formation of the 103rd Pursuit Squadron on 18 February saw the problem resolved".
      ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
      ** What you will find in this Nieuport 27 skin Pack:

    12. Polish-Russian War - Russian Tachanka

      A tachanka was a horse drawn wagon or cart with a heavy machine gun mounted on the back. This made it possible to deploy machine guns quickly, especially on the wide, rapidly changing, Eastern Front. It was used by Russian cavalry in WWI and by Bolshevik, White Russian, Ukrainian, and Polish cavalry in the Russian Civil Wars. Germany used a similar vehicle on the Eastern Front during WWI.
      My tachanka is a troika (three horse carriage) with a Vickers machine gun facing the rear. It functions in First Eagles as a Truck; drop it into your Ground Objects folder and First Eagles will assign it to some of your Armed Reconnaissance missions. The machine gun is set for AA and will fire at enemy planes that come within its field of fire.
      The download includes three LODs and a destroyed version.
      My thanks to Gepard for suggesting this interesting vehicle.

      Installation Instructions
      For both FE1 and FE2
      Unzip the file and open my "GroundObject" folder. Copy the folder named "Tachanka" to your FirstEagles/Objects/GroundObject folder. Then copy the file named "TachankaDestroyed.bmp" into your GroundObject folder. Note that the "TachankaDestroyed.bmp" file should not be inside any other folder.

    14. Nieuport 21

      The Nieuport 21 was designed to be a long range escort fighter. It used a Nieuport 17 airframe with the smaller Nieuport 11 engine to reduce fuel consumption and  extend its range. The lighter weight gave the plane a good climb rate, but the lower power engine reduced its speed.
      The Nieuport 21 served along with the Nieuport 17 on the Western Front. It was also licensed to the Dux factory in Russia and large numbers were used on the Eastern Front.
      My version of the Nieuport 21 is armed with a single Lewis gun mounted on the upper wing and has a loadout for eight Le Prieur Rockets for Balloon Busting missions. This package features two skins - one French, one Russian - a set of decals, and a fully functional cockpit. My skinning templates are included with the download.
      This plane uses the Le Prieur Rockets created by P10ppy and a sound file created by Nixou (included with his Realistic Engine Sounds package). Both of these files are available in the Combat Ace Download section. Both of these files are used by other aircraft, so you may already have them. I have included Nixou's sound file with this package in case you don't already have it.

      Credits:
      My thanks to Ojcar for making the data file for the Nieuport 21.
      My thanks to Nixou for making the sound file for the Le Rhone 80hp engine.

      Installation instructions:
      This aircraft uses P10ppy's Le Prieur rockets available in the CombatAce downloads section. You may already have it. If you don't, you'll have to download it and  install it into your Weapons folder.
      For FE1: 
      Unzip the file and move the folder named "Nieuport21" into your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft folder. If you don't already have it, copy the file named "LeRhone9c80hp1m4" from my Sounds folder into yours.
      For FE2: 
      Unzip the file and move the folder named "Nieuport21" into your FirstEagles/Objects/Aircraft folder. Then in your FirstEagles/Objects/Decals folder, create a new folder named "Nieuport21". Move the folder named "D" from the Airplanes/Nieuport21 folder into the Decals/Nieuport21 folder you just made. If you don't already have it, copy the file named "LeRhone9c80hp1m4" from my Sounds folder into yours.

      EmlD Nieuport 24E (trainer) "Issoudun Nieuport series" for First Eagles 2
      This is a full aircraft type, trying to represent the trainer Nieuports used by United States at Issoudun.
      "Issoudun Nieuport series" a set of several Nieuports used by the United States to train pilots during WW1 in France at Issoudun airdrome. Many of these Nieuports had very atypical painting schemes, between them, two with fish scales were "The Jazbo" And the "Flying Fish" (also called the "Dragon ship" or "Gwynne's Goldfish") and several others. Also these were considered "special ships" and representative of their unit. Often they were just for formation flying. Each crew tried to keep these bird primed for inspection. At Field eight there were multiple single coloured Nieuport 24 types used as aggressors for camera armed dogfights so a student could prove he had gotten his opponent. I gathered most of them in this series of skins.  
      This first pack features EmlD Nieuports 24 that I renamed Nieuport 24E (trainer).
      You will find several versions for some of the planes with different colors at your choice.

      4- Geezer pilot figure new textures (US Pilot) that I painted to be used with Geezer's "wwiPilotNew3".

    17. Polish-Russian War - Ford FT-B

      The Ford FT-B (also know as the Ford Tf-c) was a Polish armored car built in Warsaw in 1920. It was built on a Model-T chassis using steel plate left by the Germans. The FT-B had a crew of two and was armed with a single Maxim machine gun in a rotating turret. It had a relatively high speed and a long range. Because it was light weight and easy to maneuver it was an effective fighter, and the Ford's small profile made it difficult to hit.
      My Ford FT-B has a four color camo skin. I've made high and low poly LODs as well as a destroyed version. I backdated the data file to before the Polish-Russian War so the car can be used throughout; you can change the Service Start Date to June of 1920 if you want greater accuracy.
      In First Eagles, the the Ford FT-B takes the role of a tank. Drop it into your ground object folder and First Eagles will randomly assign it to some of your Army Co-operation missions.

      Installation Instructions
      For both FE and FE2 - Unzip the file and open my "GroundObject" folder. Copy the folder named "FordFTB" and the file named "FTBDest.bmp" into your FirstEagles/Objects/GroundObject folder. Note that the "FTBDest.bmp" file should not be inside any other folder.

    21. Default camo skin for SPAD 13's family

      It's the time of default skin for the most popular stock aircraft of all flight sims about WW1 - SPAD 13.
      I tried to add some "photorealistic" textures for more impressive image of this aircraft.
      I removed wing cockardes and rudder's tricolor from "Decals.ini" because they were integrated in my skin.
      Put folder "D' into "Objects/Decals/SPAD13".

    25. WWI Airfield Vehicles and Objects

      Four vehicles and other objects that modders can add to airfields using the target.ini. I have made them rather generic so they should be usable for either side, on any front. I have included the data for the types.ini for each object in the download. 
      Vehicles include a Starter Truck, a Fuel Truck, a Utility Truck, and a Staff Car. I have also included an Oil Cart and a grouping of miscellaneous Tools used by the ground crews.  
      Each vehicle has a high and low poly LOD as well as a destroyed version. I have organized everything into folders for convenience, but you'll need to take them out of the folders when you install them.
