Over Flanders Fields announces a new upcoming add-on release called, "Hat In The Ring." Designed with the community in mind it includes a tremendous amount of new and updated features. The new release is greatly anticipated and promises to be more than newly stretch canvas for the prop-heads among us. Expect a full review of the upcoming release when it is available. Some of the highlights we are greatly expecting in Hat In The Ring soon to be released are below. We hope you are as excited about this as we are.

 

NEW FLYABLE AIRCRAFT

Nieuport N.28 - Initially deploayed by the US Air Force the Nieuport N.28 was a good fighter only hampered by upper wing problems, and the odd spontaneous fire at take off!

 

Nieuport N.24 - Both British & French Versions are being released as one of the most beautiful designs from nieuport in several variations.

 

Nieuport N.24 Bis - British & French Versions

 

Nieuport N.17 Bis - The Nieuport N.17 was based on the n24 design, the n.17 bis unusually for nieuports sported two guns, Lewis over wing and Vickers!

 

Fokker E.V "RAZOR" - Late to the fight but notable as the first thick wing mono-wing aircraft with excellent performance from a 110 HP ENGINE.

 

Airco D.H.5 - Biplane with a rearward stagger. The Airco D.H.5 known for its lacking performance at altitude forced this sturdy craft into the ground attack roll where it excelled. fitted with 4 cooper bombs. Said to be a sight to be behold the D.H.5 diving onto the enemy vertically is sure to be a great addition!

 

NEW FEATURES
