Our first season is winter, the second. mercifully short season, is tourist the shredder

My apologies guys - I tried to zap a duplicate post I made in 'more screenies please' thread, and inadvertently zapped the whole thread.

Did that once with my partner in the control room at the filth mine - our faces mirrored each others as banks of switches all around us started tripping off, and mills and kilns ground to a halt. Talk about a Homer Simpson moment!

No 15 - looks oddly familiar to me too . Taken during the mercifully short second season, the other being winter. the shredder.

Wonderful On Board Footage
shredward replied to CaptSopwith's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Good work Olham! I've been to Laon, so I should have spotted it. I took the surrounding area for water, which is what threw me, but you are quite right. Laon sits up on a high rock, and drops away fairly steeply, and that is what we are seeing in that clip. Great stuff! -

The thing in that clip that intrigued me - is that Amiens Cathedral they fly over? Looks about right. Anyone positively identify it? shredward -

Marineflieger - excellent photos

Many thanks Olham! I had also seen those photos before, but I didn't know he now has a website. Cheers, shredward -
Many photos of Carl Holler at Jasta 6
shredward replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Nope, not all of them yet unfortunately. So many aces, so little time. But yes, you can look up quite a few of them. You need to explore OFF in a little more depth lol! Cheers, shred -

There is quite a lengthy article on Carl Holler in a back issue of OTF - I'll try and look it up the next time I'm home. You could look up the particulars of his claim for 30 May OFF - I'm pretty sure I put it in there. Cheers, shred -
Yeah, it's a goldmine. Some units did a much better job of summarising their histories than others, but it all makes for fascinating reading. One thing I found particularly interesting was the readiness reports of some of the SPAD units. Those Hissos caused a lot fo headaches! Cheers, shredward

I've decided that from now on I'll be counting backwards !!! That way I'll be able to wave at some of you as we pass each other at the same age, but in the opposite direction:no:

Hi Briteh, Bletch, I'm out in the boonies right now, and have been out of touch, and with no internet, for the past fortnight. Our conversation has been cut off for some reason, but I'll have a look at your opus when I get home (in another couple of weeks). Thanks for all your sleuthing, on behalf of me, OFF, and the community. Cheers, shredward -
Say hello to my little friend!

Your world will never be the same - my little Catriona is now 14 months old, and she is showing me the world anew every day. And every one is precious. Enjoy the journey, Ted -

Widow, I think that message just means that you don't have the skin for his a/c. Cheers, shredward -
Some WW1 air combat books I just found at Ebay
shredward replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
I have Michael Schmeelke's 'Das Kriegstagebuch der Jagdstaffel 12', and it is excellent. I expect no less from his new work. Cheers, the shredder -
Another Book For My WWI Aviation Library
shredward replied to RAF_Louvert's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Thanks Lou, We will bring him out of the shadows and he will once again fly Over Flanders Fields. Joseph Doerflinger -
Yes, I have it. It is/was one of the source books from the GoGS used in building Over Flanders Fields - one of several 'bibles'. There is of course, much more to it than just a list of a/c losses, and while it does not cover every incident, it certainly helps paint the picture and colour in many of the details of the war in the air. Trevor has for years been threatening us with a follow-up edition - if it ever appears, I will be in the front row to grab a copy. Cheers, shredward

If anyone has seen any sign of Conrad, I would love to know about it - any of you Michigan/Wisconsin guys on a phone call basis? shredward
