Thread: In flight photos of Fokker D.VII and Tummelisa

  1. #1

    Default In flight photos of Fokker D.VII and Tummelisa

    Some in flight photos from Göteborg Aero Show 2013, of Fokker D.VII and FVM/CVM Tummelisa replicas manufactured by Mikael Carlsson (http://www.aerodrome.se). The Tummelisa was a small trainer that was built from 1920, using the Thulin-built 90 hp Le-Rhône rotary engine.

    They even staged a short dogfight between them. They need a surprisingly small amount of space to maneuver.

    Yes, I did. Using an old manual 400 mm lense with an adapter to fit my Canon SLR. Not easy to take sharp photos in that kind of conditions.

    Superb shots, you are a natural. If you can them that good using what you did I wonder at what you would produce with a more up to date camera.

    Yes Barry. Those are a nice two also.
    I am now waiting for Ares to say something about repeating series two so that I can get some more D VIIs.

    Fantastic shots - nothing like seeing the real deal in the air, their natural element. Thanks to you both.
