A pity that they didn't allow this or similar skins for combat duties - it looks marvellous!
The End of a young Aviator
My Jasta 1 pilot (April 1918, Argonne) has just shot down a single flying Nieuport N24.
Instead of trying to run, the French flyboy turned to fight - despite a load of Le Prieur
rockets. I ordered my flight to remain passive, and took him on.
Three minutes later, his beautiful craft went down in flames.
The moment touched me somehow - here the victor, cheering about the almost certain
confirmation, with 5 witnesses for his kill; there the young flyboy, having left to himself
only one last and so very terrible decision: wether to jump or to burn to death.
Before anyone asks: I have manipulated the picture. It was a work of only a few pixels,
to give you the impression, as if the young aviator in his despair tries to climb up the
rear fuselage, to save himself some more seconds of his lifetime - not more...
