Hasse Wind 46 Posted April 27, 2009 Thanks, Shredward! Nice to see my memory didn't fail me and I had really read about those rockets from some source... but I just can't remember which one! It wasn't a Datafile book, but I do plan to get some of those one of these days. They seem to contain a wealth of interesting info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shredward 12 Posted April 27, 2009 And yes, we use the same model for the Halb DII and DIII - the differences being cosmetic, we felt it better to invest the time in something else. Same for the Alb DI and DII - yes, there was a difference in the pilot's view of the world outside, but our time is precious, and better spent elsewhere. Cheers, shredward.

Olham 164 Posted April 27, 2009 Thank you for your profund knowledge contribution, Shredward. So the Germans were at least with this weapon technology not ahead of their time then. (It just made me giggle to imagine how that Albatros' wings began to burn - yes, who plays with fire...) Unfortunately for the English people, that became different in the next World War. A friend of mine from London showed me pictures from impacts of V2 rockets in south-west London. It must have been a terrible threat, as it couldn't be heard at it's supersonic approach. A ring of white smoke at re-entry was all you might notice - but who could look at the sky all day? A shame of a warfare... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
