  1. Mistaken Identity

    I know what you mean NS13 Way back in P1 or maybe early P2, I was chasing Hannovers and Albs in a Spad Hannovers where overpowered back then and it took 10 miles to catch them When they turned to fight, I pulled up into a hammerhead and dove on them Spotted what I thought was an Albatross and dove on his 6 Still remember my thought "That Albatross has a very lonf fusa...lage" Oh crap!!! it's a Hannover!!! We exchanged fire then I flashed past him Sure was a shocker Funny how these OFF experiences stick with you

    I hope it is a stand-in It was a fun surprise to see the Nieups I had labels on and it showed as a "Nieuport 17" Should a stand-in label say "Nieuport 24"? Can't wait for those new Nieuports Whatever it takes, I'm gonna master that rotary N.28
  6. Playmate of the Month...

    Way back in 1968 my Great Grandmother came down to visit from Maine I spotted her at the stove tuning something in oil My mouth watered when she said they're doughnuts I was crestfallen when she said they're old fashioned (plain) I think I grumbled an "Ohhhh" Later she served them with powdered sugar on them Best doughnuts I've ever had

    Nice li'l canary there Olham I always like your skins Nice feel for the era Is that Alois Heldmann in the black Alb? I often use his DVII skin
  10. Not as of yet But remeber, in P1 & P2 both flights had the selected scheme The Devs have cracked the csf3 code enough to allow the Ace skins They're still working on the player flight
  11. Recon Photos etc

    flynn, that group photo is simply outstanding, great quality too! It would make a great addition to P4 If you don't mind me suggesting Your family must be right proud of your grandfather Thanks or sharing,

    Nice picture! Looks like it'll pull a lot of new simmers in to WWI ...and if history serves ...they'll be over here soon OBD oughta start burning DVD's for the rush! Like I said "Nice picture!"
  13. OT/ A little music for your ears

    Thanks Pol/Team Your support is phenominal! OFF to download ...
  15. Great website Olham! Love the pics
  16. Peaved at wingmen

    Firecage, wingies will shoot through you, trample over you, or do whatever it takes to get the victory I found this frustrating too but eventually learned it's best to just get outta their way 1 victory is not worth a collision Yesterday I had a Spad all lined up when tracers whizzed by my port wing Just ruddered over and decided to witness for my wingie Turned out to be a red nosed Jasta 11 DVII, but I got a nice front row seat to a flamer In a twisting DF collisions are always a possibility but the chances can be minimized Also if you're flying in an elite squadron, wingies will chase HA more fiercely Try an averge squad and you'll have less company ...but there's a down side to that too!
  17. Will never do THAT again!

    Well Jasta 4 has 1 things going for it ...in 5.3 hours I haven't met a Biff yet
  18. Great pics Axgrinder Sure wish I could have gone too Thanks for sharing I notice the Moraine Saulnier Parasol has French roundels on the wings and British on the fusalage Are they in the process of re-skinning or was this historical?
  19. OT: New drawing

    Fab indeed! The Lanc is outstanding with nice lighting effects Only trouble I had was detemining it's height The foreground grass is rather featureless Maybe a litle irregular tufts or wheel marks from undershoots at the end of the strip I really hate doing this as I can't do much more than stick figures Great job and a really nice gesture Puff!
  20. Will never do THAT again!

    Willkommen to our horde Olham, We enlisted on June 30th Please fill your Albatross with alcohol before departing We'll polish up a fine DVII for you Yes, I've just come from there Their base at Cappy is fine indeed Just watch out for the exploding Hangers!
  21. Track IR investment Tomorrow

    Great decision Firecage! TIR changes simming completely Occasionally, my TIR set-up will foul up I just turn around and land Just no way I'll fly without it Enjoy,
  22. Will never do THAT again!

    Oh bad luck there Olham! OFF can lift you to new heights and send you crashing back down too Many a long memory of OFF pilots who've flown over the horizon A toast to the newly dead from those soon to die! Yes, yes, come join Bullett & I at Jasta 4 We go to the train station daily in anticipation I must say though my time here has been much the opposite of yours I care absolutely nothing for this pilot as I'm more concerned with testing He is a lucky sot though 1st mission was a CAP of our front lines Saw many HA up high as we flew towards our patrol line None seem interested in our presense though Our 5 turned towards the lines nd ended up parallel to 6 Spad's, port side, high We flew to the next waypoint which was a turn to port All logic said to ignore the turn and seek tactical advantage But I just wanted to end the mission and made the turn They came down and we had a wonderful dogfight I got 4, but lost all the wingies Had a fifth lined up in my sights, "CLICK" ...nothing ...no more ammo! Those 2 Spadhounds chased me up, down, & all around Finally decided I should feign attacks to scare them into dives Dallied a little too long chasing 1 and his M8 shot my engine up Gig was up so I pushed the nose down and sought mother earth Pulled up the map to orientate myself as we were over the front Rolled 180o and spotted 4 more Spads that I was diving into Looked back and the 1 on my tail was peppering me too Tried to turn and jink but then my engine coughed it's last Found a field just behind our lines with the Spad still shooting me up on roll out Engine started sprouting flames and cfs3 finally mercifully exited ...and the lucky fool lived without a scratch! So come join our hapless Jasta Banished to the doorstep of Hades Our cause is hopeless, our destiny a speeding furnace But there are none who can party like those who accept their fiery fate
  23. Well at least there are no mosquitos here ...they've all been blown outta the sky!!! I've done the last few test flights here Bullett was spot on in his analysis AC everywhere, Archie snappin at your heels on take-off So far I've been able to do my climb outs and warp but there's always multiple HA flights Nice job on that Brisfit Very impressive And none of you approaches seem to be from below
  24. Germans to the front !

    Well said Otto Nice job Olham
  25. I suspect that coordinating missions may be more difficult when warping Please indicate how often you warp in your responses Thanks for participating!
