  1. Strange coincidence: I saw in the news, that a Tiger Moth had a take-off accident on an airshow here in Germany. The craft was about one meter off the ground, when the right wing touched the runway, and the craft turned into the crowd and killed a woman.
  2. Thanks for the tip, Rabu. I'll check our magazine stores - someone may have it.
  3. It will, Hasse Wind, one day it will. Yes, I often think that, when I see a historical machine or ruin. That feeling must be, what the saying comes from: if this thing could speak...
  4. Muahahahahahahahahaaaa!!!!!!!
  5. Not sure if this was posted before - well, better twice than never. Great War Replica Aircraft - a site with many good photographs. Here's the pilot's and rear gunner's seats in a Brisfit. Enjoy! http://www.greatwarreplicaaircraft.com/
  6. No credits for British pilots killing French cows - sorry, but you guys know the regulations!
  7. It always strikes me, when I find something like this. I hope, they will find people and money to re-buil the wings for this original aircraft. Please click on the pictures at the bottom to see full size. http://www.muzeumlot...z.php?ido=9&w=a
  8. Yes, indeed - one of those productions which are made really bad, but which still get watch so often that they may think of doing a sequel. Hopefully with more detail....
  9. Searching YouTube for WW1 aircraft, I came across the name "Polovski" - or so I thought; it was really "Polski", but the soccer team attracted my attention now. Enjoy!
  10. The availability of good Jam or Marmalade or perhaps sweet butter must make it. Yes, spot on. Butter and raspberry jam or orange marmalade - I'll try both.
  11. Look at this site here - those Crumpets look good and easy to make. I'll try that! http://foppish-baker.blogspot.com/2005/12/crumpets.html
  12. And Aussie machine gunners indeed! Ruined the whole war for us!
  13. I'm glad I could help, groumf!

    Hello, OvS!

    Sent you a link for a German color chart you may not have. Cheers! Olham

  15. You should get lots of plans for both, I assume. But if you ask me: I would always prefer the Albatros. The most beautiful of the German birst.
  16. You lucky Americans - in Germany we didn't have all this!
  17. Hey, what a cute little aircraft! Good job, tranquillo!
  18. No fighting - just flying! And feeling like Ikarus... Jasta 2, Bertincourt, 10. September 1916 Fw. Harms Today's patrol over Masny airfield was without any enemy contact. We had sighted some FE2 pushers underway, but didn't attack them, cause we had strict orders to appear over Masny. The field had been attacked by Entente bombers twice in the last days. The joy of flying - even in a weather like this, threatening to bring a thunder storm - was wonderful! Gottschalk, Grolmann, von Kranz and Boddien kicked over the traces by flying extremely low over our tents. Hauptmann Boelke ticked them off, that we could hear it all over the field. If he never did anything like that?
  19. Although I don't play such FPS, I must say: these videos and ArmA2 are very impressing!
  20. Thanks a lot, Lou, but they want 25,- $ for shipping to Germany. I'll search for the title at abebooks.de - one day I'll find it.
  21. Seems to be a good read of Doerflinger, Lou! I'll search for it. The name of the book aboutvon Schleich: Fried Lange: Ritter von Schleich (Jagdflieger im Weltkrieg und im Dritten Reich) It has an eagle with a Swastika on the front, and also inside it is made up like Nazi propaganda, what it actually is. Still though, it may contain enough about WW1 which is interesting to read - I'll read it using my "Anti-Nazi-Filters". I really hate the "brown hordes"! One thing that struck me was this page, showing von Schleich with the British pilot Lt. Reece, whom he had shot down. And years later, when the two met again in England. War is a strange happening...
  22. groumf, with your graphic card, which is faster than mine, you should be able to play the sim without such problems, like me: no stutters, good FPS, fine resolution I have set sliders like this: - aircraft: 5 - terrain: 3 - scenery: 2 - effects: 5 - clouds: 5 And it works wonderfully. But OFF also needs a fast CPU. What processor do you use?
  23. Here is a Dawn Patrol image gallery. But hey: work on your friends and tell 'em: every good pilot is needed Over Flanders Fields. http://www.boardgamegeek.com/images/boardgame/4014/dawn-patrol
  24. This probably explains why I now have, as an RFC pilot, more Hun decorations than Entente ones...
  25. If you want to add a picture of him to OFF, here is a pilot pic I made of Lou's posted picture in Photoshop. It has the right size: 72 dpi; 113 x 137 Pixel. I think, the second attempt got better:
