Albatros D II ( EARLY ) Redux

Albatros D II ( EARLY ) Redux


ALBATROS  D I I  ( EARLY )

REDUX

 

 

Following on from my previous upload of the Albatros D I, it is only right and proper to continue on with the D II ( Early ) As with my previous uploads, this is a total workover of the original D II ( Early ) From Stephen 1918.

So, a brief callout of what is included skins wise. First a generic 3 tone Camo scheme over light ply, I have done this as that way I could amalgamate several generic but mainly correct personal markings, without assigning them to any particular Jasta, so a pot luck/generic DII. The next one is an early Turkish Ottoman Albatros, again very generic, and not intended to be any particular Turkish unit. Then the really tasty one, or at least I think it is, 16 Aircraft from Jasta 2, including 7 correctly numbered and marked Albatri, as follows :-
386 Oswald Bolcke
437 Erwin Böhme
390 Otto Höhne
391 Karl Büttner
426 Lt. Günter
372 Stefan Kirmaier
491 Manfred Richtofen

The remaining 11 aircraft are figments of my imagination, but I think they fit in with the general theme of Jasta 2 Bolcke. 

Finally I have included Von Richthofens first red Albatros, which he used later on in 1916 most likely after the unfortunate death of Oswald Bolcke.Apparently it was his orginal Albatros ( D491 ) with all the fuselage, markings and tail feathers given a red wash, very cool indeed. 

As for everything else, as with all my uploads the whole package is there, so it is an un zip, drop and go sort of deal. If you haven't had any of my aircraft before, then everything is included in this package, Aircraft, Skins, decals, Guns, Sounds, and Pilots. Merely unpack the zip/Rar file, and drop it into the save folder where all your other goodies are stored. I shall again Warn that this package WILL overwrite any other ALB DII ( Early ) you already have installed if that is the case, so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE back it up or rename it so no untoward harm comes, so there you go, I warned you, so if you futz it up, it's your fault 'cos ya didn't read the boring blather on here :stars:

 

As Always..............ENJOY!!!!!................:airplane:

      ALBATROS  W 4 ( EARLY )
      ALBATROS W 4 ( LATE )
      REDUX
       
      I have redone both the Early, and Late versions of the Albatros W4 seaplane fighters, completely reworked skins, in both German Navy and Austrian navy versions. the early models are in dark ply for the Austrian, and a light ply for the German machines. These also have alt versions of the schemes if you dont like the options I have used as the default, you will see this when you install the relevant W4 ( early ) Schemes, so if you are not keen on MY new skins, just swap them with the alts. The W4 ( Late ) has the Austrian aircraft in an all over Blue Grey linen, and the German one is in the original Blue Lozenge over Blue, I have redone the lozenge somewhat, to allow for the panels I have reworked, on the fuselage, and floats, so it is very similar to Stephen 1918's original scheme, just tweaked.
      Anyway, as always, both these Albatri are in plug and play format, unpack, and install, with the usual proviso, that any existing W4 ( Early ) and ( Late ) aircraft you may have WILL be overwritten, so please ensure you do the sensible thing, and back up or rename.
      Everything is included for both aircraft, Decals, Guns, Pilots and sounds. 
       
      A shout out to Stephen 1918, for his beautiful work on the original models, also to Julio Junqueira for the pilot models.

However, here is the file that SHOULD have been there, and was not.

      An overhaul of both the Albatros DII  late version with the upper wing mounted radiator, and the Oeffag built version, with the Austro Daimler powerplant, and armed with a single Shwarzloze 8mm machine gun, the Oeffag variant is in standard linen over ply for the KuK Luftruppen, then we move on to the D II ( Late ) these include 2 differnt Turkish machines one with an all over Green/Brown Camouflage scheme, and the other in ply and a 2 tone scheme on the upper wings and tail unit, the markings are fictional of course just to give a little visual uplift, as Turkish machines seem to have been very bland, also very few photos of actual Ottoman aircraft either, so of course you can always remove the markings if you wish. Next we have a generic 3 tone Camouflage over medium ply, all these Albatri have again generic personal markings, as they do not represent any particular Jasta. The final one for your enjoyment, is an all over 3 colour Camouflage, very smart looking if you ask me, again the markings are fictional, but all 16 airframes in the " Jasta " have the same stripes, and there are no personal markings ( not every German aircraft did have them anyway )
      Anyway, as always, both these Albatri are in plug and play format, unpack, and install, with the usual proviso, that any existing D II ( Late ) and ( OEF ) aircraft you may have WILL be overwritten, so please ensure you do the sensible thing, and back up or rename.
