Oeffag C.II Work-in-progress

Recommended Posts

The Oeffag C.II was a Austro-Hungarian two-seater of 1916-1917. It served mostly on the Eastern Front, but was also used on the Italian and Balkan Fronts. It also saw heavy use after the war. It had a single gun, and could carry a light bomb load. It wasn't a very effective plane, but is said to have out-performed the Hansa-Brandenburg C.I.

 

I am about half done with he plane, still doing skins and cockpit. I think this will help supplement the Hansa-Brandenburgs we already have.

 

I haven't see much in English about this plane, but I found Italian, Russian, and Polish sites that discuss it. It seems to have been more popular after the war.

The model of the cockpit is finished. I'm finishing the cockpit skins and still unwrapping some of the parts on the main plane. I've also started putting the dimension and rigging data into the FM. It's coming along...

I love it!  :biggrin:

 

Nice cockpit - especially the oil on the windscreen. 

 

That's one of the reasons why WW1 aviators wore scarves - to wipe oil off their goggles and windscreen (if they had one).
