I've been trying it out off line.  1st impressions?  Visibility from the Camel sucks!  With that wing above your head, trying to keep track of other a/c in a turning fight is a PITA.  Visibility from the DVII is so much better.
Also, as you shoot up the drone a/c and get close to them, you can see all kinds of hole in the fabric and other damage - very cool!
Currently downloading the HIRES package - gotta see if its done! :aok

Nice work HT and Crew - love the death spirals, adds to the immersion immensely.

Thank you HT/HTC for keeping the patch small, I don't care for WWI much (I'll try it some year), but I don't like having to DL 100-150MB patches to get back in MW.  Especially when our bandwidth is critical. :)

Loving all the changes/fixes ya guys made!

Other cool stuff in 2.18;

# Pilot kills of aircraft now sends the dead plane into a death spiral.

# Added gun animations for moving parts and vibration. This is only on the WW1 planes in this version but will migrate to the WW2 planes and vehicles in the future.

# Added the ability to have different damage sounds for when different things get destroyed.

# Horizontal stabilizers can now be destroyed independently of each other.
