Thread: LVG C VI card?

  1. #1

    Default LVG C VI card?

    Does anybody have access or designed a stat card for LVG C VI plane and would be so kind to share/post it here?
    Frankly I need it in regular green/brown late war German camo style with Polish chequers , but these I can eventually impose in Paint.




    Thanks in advance,
    Andy.

    Andy,
    I have been looking for a decent top-down drawing for this plane, but I haven't found anything worth using.

    What I managed was this:

    Maybe I should look a bit harder at my own files?

    Mike, the image is just right! How can we...well not me obviously...transform it into a card?
    Thanks a lot!

    You're like a magician, Steve.

    Another reminder that I need to spend some time looking through the custom card files...

    Just lucky I had a template done already for this beasty. All I needed to do was some painting by numbers for the camo

    [Edit: Radiator added. Oh! And now two-sided.]

    For those that like the WWF style.

    I made up the Sqn #. Is the 3 Sqn designation accurate, or a guess?

    You snooze, you lose Mike.

    The aircraft Andy put up originally was with 3 Eskadra.

    Edit - Wot, no radiator?

    Steve,
    I made the number up, as I couldn't find a reference.

    However, I just found this: WWI Aviation.blogspot.ca - 1918 - LVG C.VI

    Interesting. "White Eagles" by Barthlomiej Belcarz and Robert Peczkowski, Page 53 has a photo of the aircraft (albeit pranged) and says it's with 3 Eskadra. Text says 3 Esk. was equipped with LVGs but only mentions Albatros C-II and C-XIIs, and a Rumpler C-I for Esk. 8. Maybe Nightbomber can sort this one out.

    Excellent phraseology there May I borrow this from you for Ground School this week even though it is all about how not to prang an A319 Airbus!

    I will do my best with searching for data, then...
