Again Derrflinger looked like a war god. Tiger looked like a graceful ship...

Damn I love Dreadnoughts  

You play Fighting Steel, RAM? Doesn't have the WWI stuff, but it's still an excellent game, says I.

The OV-10 is one Awesome Bird, but my favorite has to be the C130 Hercules!
I have 3000+ hours of time as an EC130Q crewman (USN), and I don't think there is a safer, more reliable, or more versatile plane on the planet!

I'm trying to find pic about S.I.A.I Marchetti "Riviera" amfibio  
Dad's friend flyed one of them in mid '70's and I was white as a snowball when were landing on the water  

Cool looking plane thought but pilot's opinion was not so cool. He told me it was a B...ch to fly  
Amfibio with pusher prop and engine behind cockpit.
