Alb D.IIL Rudolph Weckbrodt

Recommended Posts

This skin set depicts Albatros D.II D.1777/16 of Vizefeldwebel Rudolf Weckbrodt with Jasta 26. The serial number is correct within the range of aircraft delivered, but speculative. If you can identify it more precisely, please send me a message.

 

Weckbrodt was credited with two victories before he was shot down on 14 Oct 1917 while flying an Alb D.V with Jasta 26. This is one of the later versions of the D.II with the central wing mounted radiator. The D.IIL designation is used in the game, but was not used by the Germans.

 

The files attached include hangar and loading screens.

 

Thanks to Gambit168 for making his skin set available as a template, to BortdaFarm for the original model, and to Southside Bucky for advice for improvements. I have included a cockpit adaptation of the Albatros D3 model from the First Eagles Expansion pack.

 

This skin set is part of a series presented to acknowledge the dedication and continuing hard work of Peter01 who has given us outstanding flight models for so many other aircraft for First Eagles. Without his work, this model and many others would be just pretty pictures.

 

When the series is completed (don't ask when!) I'll post a consolidated set with all tweaks to date. If you have suggestions for improvement, please let me know.
