  1. The internet offers so much - I just found this drawing, which explains it halfways. Now I know, what that silvery roll above the pilot's head is for. Damn, they really moved the whole wing up and down... .
  2. A very good picture, Hauksbee, thanks for sharing. Now a question I always forgot to ask: what exactly does "wing warper" mean? Did they change the whole shape of the wing, instead of having ailerons? And if so - how was it done?
  3. Fateful Morn IV

    Again you created an intriguing atmosphere through the lighting and the colour of the sky, Dej. A picture that transports quite the melancholy, which must be connected to the coming event, but also an almost Royal purple in the haze of the sky.
  4. The craving and guessing posts have become a little rare, since we heard, that OFF may not come out this year. But hey - the year is almost over, guys! The time may be shorter than you thought, until we will see Gothas over London! I'd like to start the fire again a bit, and so for all who missed this "poster" I had made, here it is again.
  5. Maybe I should go shopping for clothes more often? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xn0pzzuKzNc&feature=related
  6. - Do you have a pööl? - A what? - A pööl - a swimmink pööl, you idiöt!
  7. What a waste - as you are married already! I had the immediate picture in my mind: You have just bought your great French uniform and found an empty cabin to dress up with it and see how it looks. Now this lady comes in - gives you that doubtful look - and walks out backwards again. Mmuahahahahahahahaaaa!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQAMvmi1Zwk&feature=related .
  8. This is something rare - notes and comparing notes written by a pilot, who has really flown WW1 aircraft. http://thevintageaviator.co.nz/projects/aircraft/albatros-dva/notes-flying-d-va
  9. She looks good as a pitbull looks good - dangerous!
  10. My joystick is as well great for OFF, as it is cheap: I use the THRUSTMASTER T.FLIGHT STICK X - it is a twist stick which you should get for ca. 30,- Dollar. Lots of buttons. It is perfect, when you want a twist stick (when you don't have pedals).
  11. Oh yes, definitely, jwrich - you should take the time and see through all the aircraft building documentations. Tons of photographs there! Enjoy it!
  12. Yes, even as an Albatros flyer from the other side of the trenches I must admit that she looks and sounds great! I guess, I'll take her up too, when she's ready.
  13. Le pilote a l'edelweiss

    That's the trouble with trying to be historically correct. Once you claim to do so, people will pin you down to each and every little mistake they find. And your chances are slim, that you'll ever get everything 100% correct.
  14. OT The First Snow of Winter

    The weather is rarely ever right, is it?
  15. Hey, British_eh, nice to see one of the veterans back here! No, P4 is still in the making, which promises it will get even better. And you should go to the Screenshots page and indulge in them - the new airfields alone are worth it!
  16. OT The First Snow of Winter

    Sounds like a quiet battle between Concrete & Biosphere! I take postion: I'm on your side. Now give a weapon. What about that rotten soft apple?
  17. OT The First Snow of Winter

    You're a good man, Flyby, and I wish the birds a mild winter too. Last one was pretty hard here for them; lots of snow. My mum got a big bird house, and I installed it in her garden. We put all sorts of bird food in it, and the little fellers gratefully used it. I always get real soft, when I see their little footprints in the snow on a cold winter morning, thinking about them living out there with only the hope for next spring. But then I also say: hey, they may be small, but so much tougher than we are - little Vikings.
  18. Damn - I didn't know that! Nobody ever told me! Thank you, Hauksbee! Now, who writes those scripts for DOCTOR HOUSE - I LIIIIKE Olivia Wilde!
  19. That's normally my problem in Germany, elephant - lots of videos banned by solicitors. But this one is visible here for me, with a YouTube frame. Must be your end.
  20. For Olham

    Hmmm - the address, as you wrote it above, should be correct. And I can even click on it - it is a link, and the link seems to work. No idea, what your problem could be...
  21. Yes, a nice find indeed! Thanks for posting, elephant!
  22. This pic is from Rosebud's wonderful early aviaton pictures site here: http://www.earlyaero...om/archive1.htm It's always the same - some go to fight the wars, others earn lots of money with them. But doesn't it still give you that "hindsight feeling", that you'd love to go back in time?
