Wacky Races was the first time I saw Dastardly and Mutley

Wow! I see this is a popular topic!

 

By all means, no rush on the N.28. Just happened to notice that it was missing from the lineup so I figured I'd ask. Better to build it right than to build it quick. As noted by others here, there's certainly no shortage of excellent aircraft to play with (Fokker Triplane seems to be shaping up as my favorite so far). In my campaigns (not in the Dr.1) I have managed to master a couple of skills so far:

1. Successful forced landings after getting my butt shot off.

2. Thumbing for a ride home.

 

I agree with many of the other posters here that this is marvelous fun, compliments to the developers. And it keeps getting better & better. Also agreed that it would be impossible to model all of the aircraft (or at least model them all well). Fascinating thing about the WWI period- how many different aircraft & manufacturers popped up (& disappeared) almost overnight. In my "day job" we work on aircraft development programs that last for years and aircraft products that last for decades. In WWI aircraft appeared and then became obsolescent within a matter of months... Didn't know you had a poll, I'll search & check it out.

 

Regarding the cartoon, the title was Dastardly & Muttley in Their Flying Machines:

Apparently the series is available on DVD for the truly dedicated fans. I also have some recollection of it from childhood. Guess we're all showing our age...
