Albatros D.III (OeFFAG) graced Austrian Skies again

[+Olham]

Albatros D.III (OeFAG) 253.24 with an original Austo-Daimler engine.

Koloman Mayrhofer built this airworthy replica and presens photos of her first flight over the Austrian Mountains.

There are many more photos in that thread.

Very nice!

I've just also found new videos for this craft - there are 5 parts, if you want to check them all.

What's causing the odd distortion?

I guess the camera is an electronic one that writes the pictures in lines;

and the horizontal shaking makes, that the first (upper lines) are taken

in a different position than the lower ones? Just my idea...

That's breathtaking, both the plane and the mountains!

Looks like the result of a very non-human field-of-view. To keep your OFF flights from looking like that, use the OFFfov field-of-view manager built into OFFice.
