GreyCap 0 Posted March 14, 2009 Oh man, I'm starting to fall in love with the Spad, very enjoyable to fly! Can somebody tell me what I'm looking at exactly? Some instruments I have a pretty good idea, but I'd like to make sure. Others I have no idea. Thanks. 1. Compass 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Not an instrument, but I'm curious what purpose it had 9.

Southside Bucky 1 Posted March 14, 2009 Can't be expected to fly properly without knowing your instrumentation, can ya? 1. Compass 2. Air Pressure Gauge (I think) 3. RPM Indicator 4. Water Temperature Gauge (I think) 5. Oil Pressure Gauge 6. Airspeed Indicator 7. Altimeter 8. Fuel filler Cap 9. Fuel Gauge All the best. Bucky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iagoba 0 Posted June 15, 2009 Have a look to the new "Vs" books by Osprey. They have two on WW1 planes, Fokker D.VII Vs. Spad XIII and Fokker DrI Vs. Camel, and just cost like 15 € (dunno in US$) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
