Did anyone ever see Flambards,that was another BBC period drama about flying set before the great war?

Hi chaps, after 2 day's of looking at every crate ever made i think that No 45 is............................ a Packard Lepere Lusac 11. Designed in 1917 by Capt. Georges LePere, a French aeronautical engineer working for the U.S. Army Air Service, the LUSAC 11 was the result of efforts to get an American built fighter into combat as soon as possible. The acronym "LUSAC" stood for LePere United States Army Combat. LePere designed the LUSAC 11 to be a combination fighter, light bomber and reconnaissance aircraft that carried a pilot and an observer/gunner. Capt. LePere, along with several other French aviation engineers, worked on the design at the Packard Motor Car Co. of Detroit, Mich. Packard provided design and fabrication space and additional engineers, and the first prototype was completed in April 1918. After the three prototypes received generally favorable reviews from test pilots at Wilbur Wright Field, Ohio, the Bureau of Aircraft Production planned to order as many as 3,525 LUSAC 11s. At war's end in November 1918, however, the Bureau cancelled its contracts, and only 28 production aircraft were built (with only seven of these built before the Armistice, none saw combat). The aircraft continued to fly in the Air Service, and specially modified LUSAC 11 became famous by setting a number of altitude records at Wright Field in the early 1920s. The aircraft on display, the only LUSAC 11 in existence, originally went to France just before the end of the war. In 1989 the museum acquired it from the Musee de l'Air in Paris, France. After extensive restoration by museum personnel, it went on display in 1992. It is marked as it appeared while at the Allied test facility in Orly, France, in late 1918.

Thanks for this,i've had the set for a year now,got em from e-bay wish i hadn't you can only just about watch them the qualities that poor, so this looks like an offical box set can't wait.

Well rooster i wouldn't of got that in a month of sundies,very well done sir.......

This might be your's Zoom Zoom i'am struggling.

Welcome aboard Stiffy , your going love this sim,and the forum so enjoy....

I thought it was some sort of flame thrower, then i thought 'No'the crate would catch fire,but after googling i found out the Germans had fitted flame throwers to some of it,s ground attack aircraft. See even if you don't come up with the goods you always learn something new.Thanks Lou for expanding my knowledge of WW1 aviation..

Well done rooster how you knew that is amazing here's a link with more info if anyone's interested.http://fluid.power.net/fpn/const/const003.html

Hi slipstream, i've been lead to belive that the AI aircraft don't get effected by wind ect so they always seem to have a advantage,it's a CFs 3 thing that can't be altered at this time.

Ras me man,i've started messing around with the tripe can't do any more yet but i will as soon as poss.

Their on to another winner !

Fantastic Ovs,and thanks to Winder the rail yard looks the part it's 100% better than before good work chaps.

Just been looking at the post by Flynn and it got me thinking, how many of the OFF community had relations in the air services in ww1? And wouldn't it be fun to do skins,profiles,etc for the said pilots.With all how knowledge we could build quite a dossier which would make great reading for every one.
