Everytime I look away another plane appears.
Another useful addition to the late war British stable

Nice... but I wish there was a frontal view as well...!

[Mike W]

Nice! Another tough one for the Germans to fight.

Ken, click on the cube icon on the RH side to rotate. You can move it in any direction by holding your mouse pointer over the pic and holding down the left mouse key.

And - B****r! I only put an order in earlier this afternoon.

There is. Click on the little box on the right to see a 3D view.

Not working for me... but perhpas it is because this particular PC only has IE 7 installed. Will try on another PC later... Thanks gents!

[The Cowman]

Yep... it was IE7 that was fowling things up... forgot that that PC has not been updated in a century or so...

[rote Flügel]

Google chrome.. it works wonderfully with all those nice websites.. hehehheh.. now I wonder how many of us will be making our own Xmas presents of these.. lol..

[Burt]

Thanks Gunnar
Was having trouble with the 3D view but downloaded Google Chrome and it works a treat now.

[alpine]

You ask and he answers! Another hopeful in the Shapeways shopping cart.

[COLBATMAN]

I'll be in for one of those too Dude, when does Zoe close orders?

[Hunter]

At last...my prayers have answered. Hooray for Kampfflieger!

[Zoe Brain]

Sorry, the order was put in 2 hours before the Dolphins showed up....

I guess we'll have to put in one more in the first week of January, so as to get them in before CANCON.

Another great plane. I was scaling down my collections. But not WoG. I just love this game! John

More Cannon Fodder for the Fokker D.VII!!!!!!!!

More Cannon Fodder for the Fokker D.VII!!!!!!!!

At high altitude where the Dolphin was designed to operate, the Dolphin would dominate the Mercedes engined D.VII hands down. The Fokker D.VIIf on the other hand...

[David Manley]

Do we know the stats for the Dolphin?

[GilmoreDK]

Do we know the stats for the Dolphin?

I can find some stats. But: What altitude is the basis for stats? There are tremendous differences in performances at different altitudes.

It was used at high altitude for fighting D.VIIs. You're on safe ground using an N deck.

[jbmacek]

I used the N deck when I flew my Reviresco Dolphin on Monday. And I had fun hunting those D.VIIs!

[Boney10]

Dolphin has arrived in Avon and is being prepared for flight :)
