Pilots biographies - Dogfight set

[christophe fran]

Hello.

Here is the Dogfight set. Just like the Hit and Run set, there are pilots missing (Second Lieutenant P. D. Learoyd, Lieutenant Richard Leighton, Captain R.G.Holt , Captain C.J. Truran, Lieutenant George Cox, Lieutenant Frank Alberry, Komandir Ivan Ulyanovich Pavlov, Kapitan Stefan Ciecierski, Leutnant Alfred Greven, Leutnant Joachim von Ziegesar, and Leutnant Helmut Lang). Although I should be able to come up with something for Alfred Greven and Joachim von Ziegesar.

As usual, thanks for highlighting errors.

Here we go:













The game lists a Siemens-Schuckert D.III from Jasta 15 flown by Hermann Vallendor. Problem is, Vallendor was never a member of Jasta 15. This red-nose Siemens-Schuckert D.III with a big white letter V did exist but nobody knows who it belonged to.





There is no known photograph of Veltjens' Siemens-Schuckert D.III. A profile has been drawn by someone, blue fuselage and red nose with the personal emblem of Veltjens, the big white arrow, but it seems this profile is pure speculation.

Thanks Richard. Actually, I realised I already had all this info. Don't know what's wrong with me sometimes. I am going to work on his bio.

By the way, the Ernst Udet bio I posted is the one to be used with the Famous Aces set. I made another one especially for the Dogfight set, with the Siemens-Schuckert profile. Here it is:

Another great bunch of cards. Great job on these also.
