Thanks Fred. Here are the specific links for each poll. Moxy: Albatros D.III Fokker D.VIIf Hett: Albatros D.II Albatros D.II late Albatros D.III Albatros D.Va Lee: Albatros D.II Albatros D.II late Albatros D.III Albatros D.Va S!

Took a spin on Syndicate's channel map and learned a single Pfalz best stay away from a formation of five Felixstowes. :-0 S!

Took me about five tries before I got the community skin pack installed. The historical pack worked the first time. S!

The Halberstadt D.II is now available for pre-order in the [h]RoF store[/h].

There is one small problem with the W12. We have the Benz Bz.III powered long fuselage C3MG model (two fixed and one flexible MG) which also happens to be the worst performer of the the W12 series. What's odd about it is the previous production run used the same engine and fuselage but were configured as C2MG models (one fixed and one flexible MG) with better performance due to lighter weight. I would have thought the C2MG would be the default configuration with the C3MG as a weapons mod. We don't get any fixed gun options. This is significant as it brings into question the ability of the W12 to catch a Felixstowe in game.

The W12 had a deep, slab-sided fuselage that eliminated the need for a vertical stabilizer. Because the W12 was a seaplane sitting high-up on floats, the rudder balance horn could go beneath the fuselage rather than above with no fear of interference with the ground (water). This configuration gave the gunner a great field of fire and was also used on several other aircraft types, all seaplanes.

Brandenburg W12 is out! Sea plane water interaction dynamics are really nice. Airplane itself a good flyer for a two-seater with floats. Will be best at attacking big flying boats. If you want to mix it up with land based scouts, better have a couple of wingmen and human gunner. Gunner position is the best in the game. Pilot visibility is worst.

There's a sale underway at the RoF store July 21 – 28th.

The 190A is a full size replica. The Storch is indeed painted up in Rommel's colors.

Some of you may be interested in some pictures I took at the May 2011 Warbirds over the Beach Airshow held at the Military Aviation Museum here in Virginia Beach. Here's the [h]Picasa link[/h]. S! Lee

Version 1.026 release has been announced on the RoF forum.

Follow this for a short video of the Military Aviation Museum's Me-262.

Speaking of skins, is there a set of master JG1 skins that individual pilots can add their personal insignia?

Have you checked out the gunner position? Pretty much unlimited upper hemisphere field of fire. S!

Salute! Let me introduce myself. I'm a former RB3D player who is just starting RoF and looking to get back into flying online. I flew with Icewolf in RAF56 back in the heydays of RB3D and particularly enjoyed the FiF campaigns. Icewolf and Bowser recommend JG1 as a great squadron with a great bunch of guys. They have invited me fly with you on the practice server to help me get up to speed on this simulation. It's an offer I gratefully accepted. RoF is an amazing simulation, much more realistic with a steeper learning curve than RB3D. Looking forward meeting you in the virtual skies, leeG (Formerly know as RAF56_Hoidge)
