EagleEye, that one reminds me of The Blue Max movie poster.

How about magazine cover inspired, this one's from 1934:

Little heads up: I believe these are some new shots posted on the publisher's website:

franksvalli I'm trying to learn the planes. The sawn-off nose is an SE5 I think but what's the sausage/Zeppelin-with-wings plane please?

Magpie stand down the Google thing temporarily please, googling is a less active form of learning than person-to-person chat: which is more memorable therefore more efficient. Given the state of my brain cells I mean Smile2

Could we please all remember to add brief descriptive labels to plane shots and could we add links to stuff we dig out?

Very exciting shots franksvalli, thanks for posting!

Ming

I would say it`s an Albatros D. III.

Probably an Albatros D.V or D.Va, because of its oval fuselage shape (as opposed to the D.III's more flat-sided profile).

Here's another webshot of an SE5a and the Albatros, and this one showing combat between an SE of No. 56 Squadron, again with von Hippel's "Blitz" from the "Green Tails" (Jasta 5).

Sorry it's small:
