Albatros D.Va

No worries.

Now, where did I put my bowl of oatmeal ... ? Keeps me reg'lar, y'unnerstan'

Absolutely.

I do think that new planes for WWI should be released in balanced pairs of planes that flew against each other.

And I do think that for some time HTC's main focus is going to be working out the bugs in the new damage modeling, then updating all the WWII planes to the same standard. Considering how many planes there are, thats a huge job.

Correction:

Brown wa NOT in SE5a. He was in F1 Camel.

Richthofen preferred the Alby until he got he DR I but, after he flew the DR I, he could not return to the Alby because it was ABSOLUTELY obselete at the time. He test flew the first D7 and could not wait to get it. Unfortunately he died before JG1 got the new D7. I have his autobiography for reference.

He had 61 kills in an Alby, D II, III and Va

Hm...I always thought he preferred his trusty Dr.1...he died in one, you know...

Maybe he should have been in an Albatros.

Apparently not Boxboy i apologize 

His kill sheet is in the back of his autobiography. A recommend this book to anyonw hwo enjoys World War I aviation.

You will not want to put it down. his descriptions of the furballs are splendid and cold, hungry for a kill feeling that ran through his veins in the midst of the battle. One of the most honorable, arrogant, disobeying, amazing human beings that have ever lived. May his legend live on. notice my quote at the bottom. here's another one:

"It is a pity of my splendid collection of trophies there is not a single Russian." - Manfred von Richthofen
