I got all I need for Bosch and Bacon eaters but not French ones.... danke Led Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 16, 2011 . Led, I've not found much in the way of good images of French items apart from the pilot ID certificates. The logbooks and AAR's that I have seen though are more or less just like those of the other flying services, except they're in French. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted July 16, 2011 (edited) lederhosen, you could search through this French website. It contains lots of interesting stuff, but I haven't seen it all through - so I don't know if you'd find it here. http://albindenis.fr...ite_escadrille/ Here is a French pilot certificate from that page: Edited July 16, 2011 by Olham Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+elephant 36 Posted July 16, 2011 Seems like some great informative stuff there, Olham... Thank you very much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted July 16, 2011 (edited) Yes, you need some clicking and digging, but it's worth it. Here is another site, which seems like it was made rather for personal use - there are great pictures of the Fokker Aircraft Plant, the production and parts and tests and and and...

Hasse Wind 46 Posted July 16, 2011 I wish my French was a lot better... a great site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RAF_Louvert 101 Posted July 17, 2011 . Indeed HW, I wish my French was better as well. 'Les Escadrilles Francaise de la Guerre 1914-1918' has been one of my go-to sources for the French side of the conflict for a long time now, and it is one of the best. Nice find too Olham on that DVII site, well done. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted July 17, 2011 Well, thanks, but the honour belongs to our OvS (whish he would sometimes creep out from under his oldtimer and show that he is still alive and hopefully well) - he found that some time ago. It contains incredible professionally made old photographs from the whole Fokker production. A must-see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
