Next OFF Add On Plane unveiled!
UK_Widowmaker replied to Gremlin_WoH's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I suppose the obvious question has to be "Why make a Biplane Hurricane?" (I'm sure they had their reasons?) -
Flying the "new" Pfalz D IIIa
UK_Widowmaker replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I'm really pleased the guys have re-looked at the Pfaltz! It was my favourite fighter in P2...and was absolutely crap in BHaH.... Now, having tried the new FM, I shall be skinning and fighting with her much more! -
Welcome Baron..New guy buys the drinks! Great write up there...glad you have seen the light, and made the leap back in time once more!...The Immersion in OFF is second to none! (IMHO) You will find there are not enough hours in the day to explore all it's possibilities! (but it sure is fun trying!)

UK_Widowmaker replied to Polovski's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Nice one Pol...The Pfaltz was a real lame duck IMO...So, looking forward to trying the new FM -

The most challenging mid-war fighter to be successful with - the SPAD VII
UK_Widowmaker replied to Hasse Wind's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Same could be said of the Pfaltz!...A pig of an aircraft in OFF...but I can find little to support the accuracy or not of the real aircraft. I know it's performance seems to have changed for the worse since P3 -
The most challenging mid-war fighter to be successful with - the SPAD VII
UK_Widowmaker replied to Hasse Wind's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
It's not even the gun that bothers me...it's the awful FOV..the forward view is so restricted!...compared to the German Types which had twice the firepower and much better visability. I would have had very serious reservations about taking it up in combat in RL -
The most challenging mid-war fighter to be successful with - the SPAD VII
UK_Widowmaker replied to Hasse Wind's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I dislike the Spad on many fronts I'm afraid. Visability is poor, and like you say HW...one gun with 400 rounds is no good to anyone in a major furball. I know there are some fans of it, just sadly I'm not one of them -
Bad crack Olham...customers eh?...right pain in the ass sometimes. Like you say, flying in a bad mood using good pilots can be a recipe for disaster!...There's always tomorrow though Chin up old bean!

Ah well..hmmm....But we bloody won!

Don't listen to Olham Ryan. He is trying to coerce you into flying aeroplanes that can be spotted from a long way off..and as we all know, if you see the enemy before he sees you, the battle is 75% won! I must admit, their aircraft are more colourful...and I do so enjoy watching multicoloured bits of fabric flying off in all directions, as my Vickers cut into them....and often marvel at the almost beautiful pyrotechnics of them burning all the way down! But what sort of cowards are they?....Parachutes indeed!! An allied pilot's aeroplane may be somewhat drab....but drab and alive sure beats colourful and dead!

This is a slight 'Modification' of a screenshot I took earlier. Have kept this image quite small..if you download it, and set as your desktop background (1280 x 1024) is mine...the natural blur of it looks not too bad I hope you find.

Just stumbled across this picture on the web Interesting if true? The cockpit was moved further back, and only had top mounted guns to prevent Muzzle Flash ruining the Pilots Night Vision
