Halberstadt D5


This aircraft is an all-new model, with hi-res skins. The D5 was basically a cleaned up D3. The upper wing structure was revised with a simpler strut system that improved pilot visibility, and the exhaust system was simplified. The D5 had provision for two Spandau machine guns, but usually just one was installed on the left side (to save weight). The D5's structure was very strong for its day, but the 120 hp engine was not powerful enough to match the performance of Albatross fighters so only fifty-seven D5s were built.

 

A separate graphics pack will be posted soon, containing textures and templates.

 

To install, unzip the contents to a new folder.

 

For FE/FEG: I don't have them so I don't know how to install these files. If you run FE/FEG and have trouble loading these files, post a question in the First Eagles section here at Combat Ace - someone should help you.

 

For FE2:
Copies of three ini files - ENVIRONMENTSYSTEM, SOUNDLIST, VIEWLIST - go in your FLIGHT folder.
A copy of the HalberstadtD5 folder goes in your OBJECTS/AIRCRAFT folder.
A copy of the Pilots folder goes in your OBJECTS folder.
A copy of the SOUNDS folder goes in your First Eagles 2 folder (alongside FLIGHT, OBJECTS, etc)

 

There is a long list of guys who helped me produce this aircraft, or posted stuff that I used to complete the package:
- Stephen1918
- Ojcar
- gambit168
- Sully
- Southside Bucky
- Nixou
- Viper63a

 

I've probably forgotten someone - if so, my apologies. Enjoy!

Just remembered two more guys to acknowledge.  Bortdafarm for the original FM, which was then modified by Peter01.

Terrific work, but something strange is happening to me with this plane. Just after takeoff a kind of light appears to the right side of the pilot seat. I've noticed that It only happens with the engine on, and disappears with the engine off (see images comparison below). Isn't a problem to me, but It seems kinda odd.
