Red-Dog 3 Posted October 12, 2009 The "Sharky Pfalz" was by Widowmaker - I used the mouth on an Albatros. But it fits better on the Pfalz. Hope he won't mind me using his idea, mind you he won't be talking to me after saturday when the Red-Dogs crush the Toon army.( Football speak) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted October 12, 2009 Yes...The Sharkmouthed Pfaltz has a special place for me, as it was my first skin. Olham is correct...the Pfaltz lends itself to Sharks Teeth, it's the right shape So, the Toon are playing you guys next Saturday then Red Dog eh?....hmmm....Both sides have had a less ignoble time in the past!...I can remember when Forest and indeed Leeds Utd were great sides. But all good things come to an end... such as the Glorious Toon being stuck in the Sunday league!!! :grin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's supposed to go on the afternoon op this same day. Maybe the soft, squishy pilot on the soft, squishy mud broke his fall?

Rickitycrate 10 Posted October 15, 2009 Sorry Red Dog... look what I did to my Reed Chambers Spad. I feel like the kid the crashed his dad's car. What was that thing doing there anyway? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sitting_duck 3 Posted October 15, 2009 Yellow Canary eating Camels! Boy, this was one of my greatest fights ever! Short after takeoff, on our way to a balloon attack, we got jumped at by six brandnew fighters, very good at turns, and with twin machine guns. But they had not got enough lessons on the new craft, and within a sequence of little more than four minutes, I destroyed three of them in an incredible dogfight. It was, as if the next one slipped into my gunsight, when the previous one was going down. But the third collided with me short after I shot off a wing. While he crashed, I could fly on - the Albatros is just the more robust fighter. But then their leader, although also his craft was also hit and smoking, got behind me, when I tried to shoot a Camel off the tail of my wingman. And now I made the experience myself, how it feels to be hit by twin guns. It was terrible, ripping canvas, splintering wood, and then my bird even caught fire! I was lucky, there was a road right in front of me, to perform a crash landing. It was sheer luck, that I survived this! Is that skin available? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rickitycrate 10 Posted October 19, 2009 Here's a little nocturnal mission. Stop the French Spy it's called. Fly to Douai airfield and get you next instruction.... I found the truck at the airfield but did not understand what to do from that point as I did not seem to get further instructions. But it was fun anyway.

Olham 164 Posted October 19, 2009 Hahaha!!! I tried that mission too, and will try again. You must follow the road behind the tents, which I did, but I must have followed the wrong junction. I think I got the description, when I rolled next to the truck at Douai. But your pics are an even darker night than mine was - wonder you could see anything!

Olham 164 Posted October 19, 2009 As MvR would have said: "It was a good morning's work!" For us. RNAS-2 lost 4 Sopwith Strutter to my flight, and RFC-19 another 5 - 6 SPAD VII. I killed two Strutters, and then three of the SPADs, before my ammo was out. And only one pilot is missing. Seems I have done everything right this time. I froze the "moment of fate" of a British SPAD pilot - last seconds of a young life... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted October 21, 2009 Before today, I had mostly fought SPAD XIII with the Albatros D Va, and some Nieuports. But today I had the chance to fight S.E.5a and to see, what my bird could do to them. And we did very well! When I spotted the three S.E.5a, they flew much higher than us. We climbed after them, every nerve strained - they might turn and come down any second! But we got very near, before they realised, and at turning and diving, they gave up their energy advantage. Their trick now: dive away, hoping we'd break our wings when we followed. But I stayed high and fought the leader. When I hit him the first time, the race was run. Huge bits came off, and he lost most of his performance. My third burst set his engine to fire, and he went down with a trail of dark smoke. Now I followed my three wingmen, when one British fighter came back up to fight me. In his climb, he caught a full burst, which made him turn away. Now he tried to dive again, but I shot his rudder and elevators to shreds. I followed him down, but no need to fire - he crashed. The third craft escaped through it's better speed. We had lost one craft, but all my men live to fight another day. Gee, that was intense, and big fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ras 0 Posted October 21, 2009 Lt. William Rasmussen hadn't flown in over a week due to the influenza. "In real life he has been fishing..." But, there was some fun in the air, though he was a bit rusty. Or was it on account of the slight fever he still had? The Lieutenant took a wee little flask of brandy into the air to help calm his nerves. "In real life, he did have a couple of brandies on ice, followed by a nice cold chaser....." He is lucky to have survived. With seven missions and seven kills, he lives for another day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
