Going through the list of available aircraft for various squadrons in WOFF, the biggest gaps that need to be filled, IMHO, are the following:
Farman F.40 (used by several French squads mid 1916 to mid 1917). Salmson 2a (used by both French and Americans early 1918 on). Armstrong Whitworth FK8 (British 2-seater used in several squads mid 1917 on).
It would be nice if someone could find models for these planes. If we get models, we can create FM's for them, too.
I haven't looked at the German's yet, although I'm sure there are several missing types there, as well.

Here's a look see at some of the stuff that is going on behind the scenes at the ole OldHat's Skunkworks factory:
The Morane N model seen above is still a work in progress. In fact, OldHat as just sent me and Robert an updated version of the Morane, so things are moving along. Anyone out there with knowledge of the dark and mysterious art of Gmax? We also could use someone who has some knowledge about drawing damageboxes.
In the next week or so, we hope to be able to share a brief video of a mock "dogfight" involving either the Morane or the Longhorn. Please stay tuned.

BWOC Survivor!...So Far!!
Ok folks, here is a video of combat between the Morane_N and the Fokker EII. It is short because I wanted to avoid long upload times in order to get this to you as soon as possible. The creation of the Morane model and FM is a work in progress and there is still work to be done on the skinning side as well but the video provides a rudimentary experience of things to come.
Many thanks to OldHat and BuckeyeBob for all the fine work they are doing.
