Olham 164 Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) The "Great War" was the time of the aircraft with rotaries, and the time for turn-fighting with much use of rudder. That hasn't been in any title so far. Perhaps we could come up with a good one for those aspects? Like: Over Flanders Fields "Turn Fighters & Rotaries" . Edited October 21, 2011 by Olham Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaw 5 Posted October 21, 2011 someone's gonna ring the bell.............can't wait to hear what the devs decide...they probably got a name already and this is so much backstage puntering!!! Meantime...how cool were the last Aviatik pix....eh?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wayfarer 5 Posted October 22, 2011 Kind of fierce , but ... OFF: Aim For The Man (My natural tendency would be for something poignant, but I don't think OFF: Till The Boys Come Home would be the sort of message they'd be looking for) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HumanDrone 4 Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) I'm enjoying the humorous entries here, but if it evolved into a contest of sorts, I'd go with "OFF: Crosses of Honor" or "OFF: On a Wing and a Prayer". I don't get to fly OFF too much, I've been terribly busy, but a new box comes in tomorrow and I plan a full reconfiguration - the new combat rudder pedals, joystick and throttle are sitting there waiting, and the TrackIR is in the closet as well - my old machine didn't have enough ports to plug all this in. Ya know, "Crosses of Honor" could refer to either the medals or the grave markers. One thing I've grown to appreciate from "flying" these birds is the sheer bravery of the men who piloted these things. Sometimes I fire it up just to watch that stunning opening video by Polovski. Brings tears to my eyes. Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to P4! ETA: Holy mackerel! Didn't know the thread was so hot! There must have been a dozen posts while I was composing this! ETA again: I'm a complete idiot. I'd only read page 1... ETA a third time: Has anyone suggested "OFF: Spin, Crash and Burn" (for the humor section...)

Olham 164 Posted December 6, 2011 You're funny, HumanDrone! And since you show your location, I might as well add you to our "OFF Pilots Maps". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dej 17 Posted December 6, 2011 I was thinking it needn't be radically different, even if P$ is almost new build. I suggest OFF: Hell Above (assuming no one else already has). It's an advance, so to speak, on 'Between Heaven and Hell' but keeps its family history Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted December 6, 2011 Good point, Dej! What about OVER FLANDERS FIELDS "To Hell on Wings" or, since the devs built that addon/mod for Red Baron 3D, they can perhaps use this name again: OVER FLANDERS FIELDS "Hell's Angels" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carrick58 23 Posted December 6, 2011 Good point, Dej! What about OVER FLANDERS FIELDS "To Hell on Wings" or, since the devs built that addon/mod for Red Baron 3D, they can perhaps use this name again: OVER FLANDERS FIELDS "Hell's Angels" Fokkers Above , Albatros 's Below.

Britisheh 0 Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) I propose a radical change to something that nevertheless has a familiar ring and that evokes an element of the sim which all have experienced, namely: 'Under Flanders Fields' Hi there Dej, Isn't that where most of the pilot's end up, or rather down?

Dej 17 Posted December 6, 2011 Like your forum picture Richard. I live in 'Constable country', Flatford Mill is not too far away, beautiful place, well worth a visit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted December 6, 2011 Thank you, Richard. And true, Dej - but then, most I saw of England and Wales seemed very, very beautiful to me. I must travel "Old Blighty" again - worth more than three journeys indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
