Hiya, nice post.
I find myself in a similar situation. I have been interested in WW1 flying since the 1980's. I used to spend hours and hours playing TSR's Dawn Patrol. Then got busy with life after school and college. The advent of pc's games came about, and then RB3 for me. Since then, I haven't really played many decent WW1 flying sims, kind of been a glut of them. I have ordered OFF and am excitedly waiting for it in the post!
