New WW I Flight Sim on the horizon...

I saw that several people meantioned Red Baron as a favourite of their's and figured I'd fire a heads up.

It looks like Third Wire the developer behind the fun and highly moddable Wings Over Vietnam/Strike Fighters: Project are developing a WW I flight sim based on their current game engine. (uprated of course)

Here's to hoping that this gives us what we flight simmers have been waiting for the last while.

Atlease they've now modeled the ground opbjects which is hope will pump up the immersion of low alt flying. Altought the trenches seems to be flat and are not geometrical.
I like WoV much and it looks nice, but the ground is just flat which i really disliked over Lomac.

I'm quiet a ww1 nut and this game is sure on my list, i had big pleasuretime playing Rowan Flying Corps back on my pentium1

I honestly cannot knock the graphics if it offers the same fun I had dogfighting in my Sopwith Camel. (which I just found out carried Air to Air rockets for Zeppelin hunting!)

Hell even the mission builder that came with last revision of RB I kicked ass. So simply to use and a blast to play.
