I started the earliest possible Central fighter campaign (WOFF1+Exp2+2.13)
Now coming up through to.. October 1916 I think? The Jasta has decided to go with Fokker D.I`s, but the problem is I can`t continue with the Jasta (Nor can I transfer out of it), because the Fokker D.I is not available..
A bunch of flight hours, right under 30 kills, and my gun for 100 kills before the end of 1916 is out the window frown

What gives? smile

The "usual" Jasta 2 mid-October 1916 (Been a few hours now so the date eluded me) but October`ish for sure when I ended the last mission.

For Jasta 1 the lowest rank flies Fokker D.I at that time - not the Fokker D.II.
Fokker D.I is not available as it doesn't exist in WOFF so no one can fly it obviously!
If the craft is not made, you can't fly it.

Same with any other type of aircraft that does not exist in WOFF that a squad needs on a certain time. We fill those gaps but it takes a lot of time.

Sometimes we are able to substitute craft, but then get complaints for that too. Try a higher rank as they would fly Fokker D.II.

Maybe it's possible we can substitute the D.II for it, we'd have to look.

For Jasta 2 they do not fly the Fokker DI or DII at that time but fly Albatros D.II and D.I ?

Guys, when you enlist, you could do the "Manual enlistment" (bottom right corner, click that).
Then you can go through everything - nationality, bomber or fighter, squadron choice...

In the squadron choice, you can see which aircraft this unit will receive throughout it's war time;
they are listed below the aces, I think.
Those aircraft which are shown in RED, are not available yet.

You can click through the years, months or even days with arrows, to see what aircraft the unit
will have when. Also you can check that way, where the unit will be based at various times
throughout the war.

For a solid, long-lasting campaign, you should perhaps check all this out, so you know
where you are enlisting. Or when it would be time to make a transfer.
I hope this helps.

@Red:
Take a look at the manual Squad Deploy, to find out when your Squad gets a new Plane. If it's not too much Time, you maybe want to do a Time Jump?

Too late, "begin new career" is basically what I`m told when I click the campaign button with the current pilot.

Any possibility of making some D.II changes for it to be a D.I, or just flat out change whatever text file for different plane? smile

May be possible not sure RVH. For the moment just be aware of it. Best to scroll the date ahead to see for potential none available aircraft (bear in mind also your potential chosen rank) in the manual squad enlistment.
