Things got hairy up there today. Free hunt around Arras (enenmy held territory, I was asking for it). Got jumped by a couple of froggies. I downed one of them, and in the confusion that followed, I managed to escape.

RFC dear chap, RFC ;)

Great pics :up:


(Well, RFC unless you hit it after 1st April 1918, THEN it's an RAF aircraft ;) )

RAF founded on April 1st. What a joke:roll: :rotfl:

That's what Jerry thought....until the battle of Britain :smug:

I am so glad that this thread is back up :D I was going through withdrawls;)

You should have heard what Hunter ICX was going through:

Catatonic states, nervous shaking, jabbering nonsense and complete breakdowns, to name but a few. :o

Are these all from phase 2? OFF?

From what I can gather, yes.

Erich Loewenhardt of Jasta 10 goes down at the hands of Major James Bigglesworth. This kill rises Bigglesworths claims to 61. (35 confirmed) May 1917.

For real, Erich Loewenhardt became the third best pilot in the german airforce during WWI. He died on the 10th of August, 1918, when he crashed into a Fokker D.VII during a dogfight. He bailed out, but his parachute didn't open, so he fell to his death from around 12.000 feet. The poor boy...he was only 21...The pilot in the Fokker survived though.

Teaches them Russians not to mess with the JG53. :smug:
