    Default My GC 12 maiden flight..........It did not go well!

    So i just finished adapting some French Spad VII's for Groupe de Combat 12 as i love the squadron and the Spad VII, so thought id share a picture of the calm just before the storm of their maiden flight.

    Their first engagement was an utter disaster a mixture of Guynemer's wings shearing on the first pass followed by some pretty awful flying from the rest of the flight , 4 Gun jams at the worst moments and a lot of flames mixed with consistently high damage cards dished out, so alas Jasta 18 were deservedly victorious this time With Raban's Tripe doing more than its fair share!

    Muttley is rather chuffed!

    Nice repaints! Is that an Alternative History Jasta 18 SPAD?

    I'd like to see some close-up shots (or, even better, view them in person).
    I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!

    Thank you most of our Jasta 18 is courtesy of our good pal Dom , altho a few have been modified, haha it is indeed the Spad we picked up second hand but actually ended up repainting 90% of it ourselves. Dad likes the fact it can get him out of trouble just as fast as he got in it haha, I might upload some pics of the Spads on the end of this thread but i must say they are rather basic repaints of the Guynemer Spad but seem to do a job . Also will add a few of the J18 SPAD XIII for you , with that in mind ill try to remember to bring them to the next event we attend.

    Hm, it would seem at first glance to be an even match...but yeah, it all depends on flying and cards.

    Great paint jobs there Rob, the escadrille looks very professional.

    They look nice Rob, like the XIII but then I have previous for putting entente crates into the hand of the Germans !
