I'm not sure the Ponnier Type L1 ever saw combat. A Breguet Type 5 with a 37mm cannon would be cool ^^

Albatros D.III, Sopwith Camel, Nieuport 24, and SPAD VII to start for me. But I'm pretty happy with what we are getting, aside from the lack of an Albatros. Hopefully it'll be among the first added in later updates.
Treize (pronounced 'trays')- because 'Treisprezece' is too long and even harder to pronounce.

I'd guess that's pretty much an impossible equation. :)

The SE5a would be my choice ride too, Pongo. Ah, to be at Old Warden on a summer's afternoon again . . .

Supposedly before the end of 2009, however I personally would not be too surprised if it was held back a week or ...

Hopefully they will eventually add a Zeppelin. Would be a awsome sight to see 5 or 6 Zeppelins heading towards your base.

Be an even prettier one to see them burning like a Brock's Benefit.

Zeppelins are lame. They didnt see any significant action over the Front in WW1. They were used for night time raids. A sim with bunches of Zepps up is for something to play on Playstation 3 with the other hokey FPS games. I remember the Zepps in DoA, and I thought it totally ruined it.

Leave them for "Crimson Skies: WW1" expansion pack and keep them out of Aces High.

Hard to ruin something that was already a waste. :D  I'm hoping the new WW1 aircraft are modeled to a higher standard than DoA.

At least Zeppelins might give you something to use all those pointless bomber perkies on if the arenas are linked. :)
