Theo Osterkamp with his Fokker E.V

Hasse Wind, I'm not so sure, if Göring was really liked. Udet wrote a good line about Göring in his book, but it sounded rather short to me, and Göring was already high up in the Nazi hierarchy, when Udet got the book printed. Steve, that annecdote shows so well, how close human behaviour and desperate fighting lay beside each other. -
What Does Your Cockpit Look Like?
Olham replied to RAF_Louvert's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
It's humiliating when your kid shoots you down. You see that absolutely wrong, Condor. It is great, when he is good - he is YOUR kid! -
JimAttril, you're not alone down there. The "Lord of Winding" must be very near you (Lol!) Steve Drew, you break my heart with your sobbing headover - if you find at least 5 members in Australia, I will make another Australia map - promised! (Wasn't scouserlad living down there? And what about Capt.Winters? And there where more...)

BuB, warp is allowed in Siggi's DiD standards. You can use 'warp', 'labels' and 'TAC', and then name your settings DiD/TWL in his killboard. But I think, you should first get into it more. You should set your pilot to "easy: die roll at death" - that is no cheat and doesn't make anything easier (correct me if I'm wrong), but your pilot doesn't have to be written in again and again. Only his credits will be erased.

Hey, hello all "southpaws" ! I am one too! But I fly with the right hand (it's like cutting with scissors - doesn't work with the left). -
Wilbur and Orville Wright building aircraft in Berlin
Olham posted a topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Some of you may smile now, but to me, this find I just made in the web, was a surprise - I hadn't known that! Als im September 1909 zwischen Teltowkanal (...) und der Berlin-Görlitzer Eisenbahn der erste Flugplatz Deutschlands eröffnet worden war, zogen auf dem Experimentierfeld die Flugzeugbauer ein: Wilbur und Orville Wright mit ihrer Firma "Flugmaschinen Wright", Anthony Fokker mit dem "Fokker Aeroplanbau", Walther Huth, Ernst Heinkel und Robert Thielen mit der "Albatros Werke AG" und Edmund Rumpler mit seiner "E. Rumpler Luftfahrzeugbau GmbH". http://www.maerkischeallgemeine.de/cms/bei...ben-fliegt.html When in September 1909 the first airport of Germany was opened (...), the aircraft constructors moved in to the experimental field: Wibur and Orville Wright with their "Flugmaschinen Wright" company, Anthony Fokker with the "Fokker Aeroplanbau", Walther Huth, Ernst Heinkel and Robert Thielen with the "Albatros Werke AG" and Edmund Rumpler with his "E: Rumpler Luftfahrzeugbau GmbH". The airport terrain still exists, but isn't used for flying anymore. Here is a satelite pic. -
Say What? - if you liked Red Baron 3D, you will L-O-V-E "Over Flanders Fields". Here, you won't only feel like playing a sim - here you will be a pilot in those days! Promised! Okay, I have begun working on an America map. It would be great, if you Amreicans could send me a Google-Map link with your hometown - otherwise it would be just too much research for me to do. Best to send it as a PM, I think? Thanks. Olham

He's the one, who "owned us all", as the title seems to say - ze Kaiser of our great Fazzerland!
-
Oh, I see. Will put that right.

What nationality are you?
Olham replied to Herr Prop-Wasche's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
He wouldn't say, but somewhere along the "Blues highway" - I would guess Arizona, Colorado or Nevada, from the flint arrow peaks. -
Ah, I could watch the pics without registration. Have you photographed the flint tools, and drawn them? That's incredible! My girl friend's dad used to do that. He had found three place in Ostfriesland, that had been neolithic settlements. I have often walked the field with him, and found some great stuff.

Happy Bastille Day to all our French "Amis"
Olham replied to Check Six's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Bullet, I would try a more modern version of freedom. So I would like to say: Humanity is never free, as long as it is not free from fear, from envy and hate, from lazyness and boredom. -

Olham replied to Herr Prop-Wasche's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Thank you! I'm thinking of making a new thread of that map, so more people find it and will hopefully join in there. You're all welcome. -
Good find, thank you, hughesyman - will watch it all! I would like to add you to my OFF Europe map - if you like, PM me your hometown, and possibly, where you live now. Thank you.

ZoomZoom, Dimus - if you PM me your nationality and home town, I'll add you to the OFF Europe map. If you like. -
Hahaha!!! Great, Rickity - you found a copy of it! Don't even have one myself. I hope, they only wrote good things about me. But that I even made it on the cover - now, that abashes me almost (blush). Please report, if it's a good read!

Olham replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Dej, you know the good men! Yes "onkel Theo" they called him in WW2. The fact that he has been kicked out in 1944 nicely rounds his fighter career - certainly not a Nazi bum. It was enough, if you had words against Herr Goerings and Herr Hitler's infinite wisdom. -
Wilbur and Orville Wright building aircraft in Berlin
Olham replied to Olham's topic in WOFF UE/PE - General Discussion
Is that the book "Fokker Werke" ? -
Hey, Bullethead - good you're back. Your description of your home place is so cosy - you might have written as well: Please - I don't want anybody to come up with the idea to make a visit! I think, it's understood (Lol!) When I wanted to look at your pics, Yahoo wanted a registration, where I'd even get an E-mail address. Is that for free? I don't like to read all the conditions; if it's for free, I'll do it.

...where we bury the Boche? Traitor!

Now this is a funny find: an advertising poster from 1919, showing the DVIII. The subtitle reads: "the ideal sports plane!" -

Well parried, Kowalski - officer, eyh? Well - I'll have the "Talon" then. I'll use it to shoot that grin out of hqbn's b*m. -

Black Adder again - don't know if you'll make friends in France showing this excerpt, but I liked every episode you showed here so far. Happy Guillotine day, everybody. -
The airfield tactic is one I use, when out of ammo. But I don't land - I lure them to follow me around and around, until the ground fire finishes them off. When I come back on the last drop (and that happens often - my brain is like a sieve; I keep forgetting to fill in the right amount), I have even had to make a landing in a forrest. There was just this one road cutting through it. Ever tried to land in a narrow alley way?

HomeBoy, that is a form of cruel sadism, to show this pic now - I'm sittinghere hungry! After Siggi, you are the next lucky man who is married to an Asian lady, who can make Sushi. Right now, I would love to have a plate with just two Negitoro Maki and two California Maki - well, and a Sashimi moriawase perhaps on top (dream, dream!!!)
