Wow, that Caudron R 14 had two HISPANO engines with 300 hp each!
Do you know it's top speed?

The Hanriots were also used by the Swiss after the war. I have a picture somewhere of one in a Swiss museum in their colours. Or maybe the museum is in Munich.....

The Iron Cross and the Golden Military Merit Cross have the same black and white ribbons. Actually the same B&W ribbon was also used for wartime awards of the Hohenzollern Order and the Red Eagle Order.

So...two identical black and white ribbons side by side in a black and white photograph.
Well I don't feel too stupid then.

How about the plane that is needed desperately in a WOFF add-on...the DH4.
I see the other dream add-on (The Big Ack) is already here. And, if I may be greedy, just about any darn thing you post is cool with me.
Do you have any group pictures of squadron personnel? Or even single man shots (like Baumers) are a educational tool.

OOooHHhhh, AAaaww, I think this be what my cat feels when i pay attention to her. ......Purrrrr

Thanks! Great Pics thumbsup


? Any total failures in design?
I recall some contraption that had dual triplane.

PS, I love the pics of the central engine running the dual engines on the wings via the shaft. Reminds much of a modern day front wheel drive car. CV joints go on them.....

Gee, what a big show! Great to see the personnel photos in this high quality!

Do you have any Roland D. VI with personal emblems, Jim?

Very nice pictures, thanks for sharing. I especially like the Salmson-Moineau engine, beautiful in its weirdness.

If I remember well it will make (along with other modifications) a SPAD XVII, only a few reach the front at the very end of the war, but it seems that Fonck scored his last victories with it.
