. CatKnight, you've noted that French pilots must fly from Etampes to their assigned aerodrome, however the field at Etampes is not in WOFF. Might I suggest Saint-Inglevert instead. I am planning on having my pilot serve with MS23 which will be based at Lahoussoye on 1 February, 1915. Flying from Saint-Inglevert would offer a cross-country flight of about 160km with a duration of about an hour and twenty minutes. Here is the map showing what would be a very easy to follow route, (open the image in a new window to view it full size): .

Does anyone know if we'll be able to continue the French campaign in October 1915, once the new expansion arrives with the N.10? IIRC we will be getting the CI model. The squadrons require the CI and the A2 models (not to mention the N.12's). Will these squadrons be able to function with only the CI's? I wouldn't want to sit around until the N.11's arrive. Is there any other way to get around it apart from switching to RFC?
Second question - can we keep the rank of the previous pilot, or do we have to start from the bottom again with the new pilot?
And finally, Pol - any chance of more early French planes that could be included in the second expansion containing the Fokker D II?

OldHat, thanks for your reply. I am counting on the expansion to be released by September (two weeks) and we will be able to continue our campaigns uninterrupted. I'm just wondering if only one variant of N.10 (the CI) will be sufficient to keep the escadrilles operational. Maybe one of the devs would be able to answer it.

 Adian Hey guys, should I complete a survey now? Or wait until after the first QC mission is flown?

Maybe try again. Can you see something like this?

Man, I'm going to have one long haul from Ghistilles to Colmar when I need a new airplane! May I fly one out of Koln?
