    Default who's a lucky boy then?

    just managed to get a dr.1/camel dual pack on e-bay auction. technical stuff on Sunday, meant I missed another one of these dual packs on e-bay by £1. dunno if it was another Aerodrome member that got it, but enjoy em. I'VE GOT BROWN'S SOPWITH CAMEL - YEAH.

    I was watching those two duel packs. Glad you got one! I was lucky enough to score a revised edition game with Brown’s Camel, Luke’s SPAD, Baumer’s Albatros, and the red and green version of Richtofen’s Dr.I. Basically, both duel packs in one box. Gave me another set of damage decks too. I didn’t have any of those 4 planes, and they were all on my WANTED LIST. Great feeling, eh?

    A good result for the you chaps. Considering how rare and ridiculously expensive they are now.

    Ah, yes, the Revised Deluxe set - the first box set I was able to acquire (but sadly not the last!)

    Well done Iain!

    Suprisingly - a good deal - got them for less than I was prepared to pay the difference between what I paid and was prepared to pay will probably buy another aircraft (don't let mrs. cc see this )

    ... and Clipper1801 just provided the last plane on my Wanted List. That's right, I actually have a full inventory list - complete with pictures of each and a Wanted List (Must Have, Wanted, Slightly Wanted, For the Right Price...). It also has pictures of all the repaints I desire and full historical research for each. Cause I'm sick that way.

    Just scored the wily and elusive Siemens-Schukert D.III Lange. Old Mr. Skull and Crossbones is in the bag. (thanks again David)

    And with that, I have now completed my collection. Guess it is time to put them all up for sale and move on to something else. Hmmm... maybe Sails?

    Just kidding, Tim. No Sails! ... clink!

    Restorative brandy consumed... situation normal. Going to watch some more Python on Netflix.

    just noticed. got a dr.1 previously and now have another dr.1 with the dual pack. They're different colour schemes. done some checking and it seems both are correct. half red fuselage and green upper wing surfaces seems like an early variation, I think. Slightly less confused now
