Halberstadt Cl.II
4.25Mb (118 downloads)
Halberstadt Cl.II The Halberstadt Cl.II was a highly successful escort fighter and infantry support aircraft. In November 1916, Halberstadt began development of prototypes built to Idflieg’s new lightweight C class specifications. (C= armed two seat and the lower case l meant lightweight). Following successful flight testing in May 1917, an order for 100 was placed, of an eventual 900 total. Initially the Cl.II had a forward firing Spandau mounted on the port side of the engine. Late production had the Spandau moved to the starboard side mounted above the engine. It could be equipped with a radio and camera but was usually not so equipped. Although it was beginning to be replaced by the even lighter Halberstadt Cl.IV in the middle of 1918, it soldiered on until the Armistice. It also saw post war service with Poland. The model, textures. panel and air files are by Captain Kurt. The pilot figures were developed from Wolfi's freeware Japanese pilot .fsc source file. The prop spinning texture is by Kelticheart. The Hand Weapons models and textures are by Captain Kurt. Kdriver and Martin Klein did the conversions to exploding weapon. Gauges are by Martin Klein (with a couple of texture change outs by Captain Kurt), Bastian Hundt, and Horst Weingärtner.

Halberstadt Cl.IV
3.93Mb (110 downloads)
Halberstadt Cl.IV The Halberstadt Cl.IV was a further development of the successful Haberstadt Cl.II two seat fighter and infantry support aircraft. Arriving at the front in late June, 1918, too late to have a major impact on the closing stages of the war but it was still arguably the best ground attack aircraft of WWI. Those Schlashta units that received them were very satisfied with them. They were employed in the ground attack role trench strafing, attacking artillery positions and rear areas. The crews often carried extra machine gun drums, hand grenades and small bombs to increase their effectiveness. Some 1200 were ordered and approximately 900 delivered before the end of the war. --- The model, textures. panel and air files are by Captain Kurt. The pilot figures were developed from Wolfi's freeware Japanese pilot .fsc source file. The prop spinning texture is by Kelticheart. The Hand Weapons models and textures are by Captain Kurt. Kdriver and Martin Klein did the conversions to exploding weapon. Gauges are by Martin Klein (with a couple of texture change outs by Captain Kurt), Bastian Hundt, and Horst Weingartner.

Rumpler C.IV
15.93Mb (137 downloads)
The Rumpler C.IV, along with the DFW C.V and LVG C.V, was one of the more important aircraft of the German Air Service in WWI. The Rumpler C.IV was a two-seat aircraft, designed for reconnaissance, artillery spotting, and occasionally light bombing. It was able to reach ceilings higher than intercepting Allied fighters allowing it to reach far behind Allied lines without losses, but was not very maneuverable. Aileron control forces were heavy and it was slow to respond. Crews were warned not to attempt any turn until reaching full speed and at least 500 meters AGL. Early version suffered from a structurally weak rear fuselage until later versions reinforced it with plywood sheeting. Nevertheless crews appreciated the aircraft because it was relatively invulnerable to interception, had long range and high speed for the time. It was produced with three different engines. The most numerous was the 260hp Daimler-Mercedes D.IVa, which had an unusual installation of a pronounced tilt to the right. Beginning in 1916 through to July 1918, an approximate total of 1150 were ordered from Rumpler, and licensed contractors Bayerisch Rumpler Werke and Pfalz. -- The Rumpler C.IV The model, textures. panel and air files are by Captain Kurt. The pilot figures were developed from Wolfi's freeware Japanese pilot .fsc source file. The prop spinning texture is by Kelticheart.

Erwin Welker CFS2 Spruce Goose
Erwin Welker CFS2 Spruce Goose
29.17Mb (104 downloads)
The largest wooden airplane ever constructed, and flown only one time, the Spruce Goose represents one of humanity's greatest attempts to conquer the skies. It was born out of a need to move troops and material across the Atlantic Ocean, where in 1942, German submarines were sinking hundreds of Allied ships. Henry Kaiser, steel magnate and shipbuilder, conceived the idea of a massive flying transport and turned to Howard Hughes to design and build it. Hughes took on the task, made even more challenging by the government’s restrictions on materials critical to the war effort, such as steel and aluminum. Six times larger than any aircraft of its time, the Spruce Goose, also known as the Hughes Flying Boat, is made entirely of wood. A long time ago, I did a CFS 2 conversion for an earlier Spruce Goose model by Dennis Simanaitis released in 2004. Unhappily, the converted plane goes too low at water and I never uploaded it, but it flies well. I stored it hoping someone could build a better plane. When Erwin Welker released his new work, I simply made a last revision at the airfile and prepare a good DP, based on the BV238, to get a tested product.

LVG C.V
4.77Mb (138 downloads)
The LVG C.V, along with the DFW C.V and Rumpler C.IV, was one of the more important aircraft of the German Air Service in WWI. The LVG C.V was a two-seat aircraft, designed for reconnaissance, artillery spotting, and occasionally ground attack. It was sturdy, maneuverable, able to defend itself, and well liked by its crews. By the autumn of 1917 the LVG C.V was coming into widespread use alongside the contemporary DFW two-seater. A total of 1250 were ordered from Luft Verkehrs Gesellschaft (aka "LVG") Many saw postwar use with various nations. The Polish Army utilized some 150 captured examples after the war. Several examples (collectively numbering thirty in all) saw service with Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and the Russian Empire. LVG C.V The model, textures. panel and air files are by Captain Kurt. The pilot figures were developed from Wolfi's freeware Japanese pilot .fsc source file. The prop spinning texture is by Kelticheart. German 12.5 kg PuW bombs are from the 'Aerocrate Misc.

Lucariny's Supermarine 224
9.07Mb (124 downloads)
The Supermarine Type 224 was an inverted gull-wing monoplane fighter aircraft designed by R.J. Mitchell at Supermarine in response to Air Ministry Specification F.7/30, which sought a fighter for introduction to succeed the Gloster Gauntlet. It was powered by the Rolls-Royce Goshawk engine, which used an experimental evaporative cooling system, and problems with this system, combined with its disappointing performance, led to it being rejected, a contract for production aircraft eventually going to the Gloster Gladiator. It is nevertheless notable because R.J. Mitchell learnt lessons from its failure that were to contribute greatly to his success with the Supermarine Spitfire.

DFW CV late production 1918 V.2
3.97Mb (153 downloads)
The DFW. C.V was possibly the most important aircraft in the WWI German Air Force. The overriding purpose of aviation at that time was support of the ground war. This made observation and artillery spotting the primary air forces' mission and the DFW C.V equipped front line units in greater number than any other German 2 seater. It was highly successful, well liked by its crews, and was reported to have outstanding performance comparable to the F2B Bristol fighter. It served continuously from 1916 to the end in 1918. Almost 4,000 were produced, with 2005 manufactured by the parent company DFW (Deutsche Flugzeug-Werke), and under license; 1400 by Aviatik, 400 by LVG (Luftverkehrsgesellschaft), and 150 by Halberstadt (Halberstädter Flugzeugwerke).
