    Smile Another nice one from Russell Smith!

    Seems like ages since we had any WW1 aero Art so I found this nice one from Russell. Its quite a few years old but I had not come accross it before.
    It captures the famous meeting of Guynemere & Udet as shown in the TV Dogfight series & written about by Udet in his book.

    Thanks Barry. One of my favorite anecdotes from the war, but I never knew which sceme Udet was flying at the time, so this really brings it to life for me.
