It was definitely a Triplane and it would be remiss of me not to admit that yes, once airborne,there was only ever one target in mind and lo and behold it came to pass, not once but twice, I believe Andrzej has captured the first kill on video.. joy unbound...
To be able to repeat the job only minutes later was wonderful and made up for the fact that I shot nothing down in all four games on the Saturday. In fact so good was the Sopwith Triplane I went on to record another couple of kills (making 4 without reply) and narrowly missing out on the Ace of Aces trophy. Despite Chris's best efforts all he managed to do was pass me a number of zero damage cards - as I pointed out, by failing to admit I existed how could he possibly hope to shoot me down.....
I was so impressed it may well become my dogfighter of choice (assuming no Bristols about of course... but that is another story which I am sure will be very well documented once the photos start getting posted...)
