    Default The Wright Flight Dayton Ohio May 14, 2022

    Quite the adventure today for The Wright Flight. Today we gave Jim O'Neil's (rhodie80) Origins scenario a test run. US 103rd Aero Squadron SPAD VII protecting observation balloons from Jasta 5 Albatros DVa.

    There were a lot of planes on the table so I just have some actions shots from the day. The best has to be the flaming balloon that exploded and took out the Jasta 5 Albatros that attacked it!

    Now, that is quite the line of Jasta 5. Looks like the famous picture of those planes all lined up.

    Surprised Jim didn't have a basket packed with HE !
    Good to see the Wright Flight action again, thanks Dan

    Super pictures, and really impressive repaints - especially the balloons!

    That is a fine looking line up of both aircraft and balloons Dan.
    Thanks for posting the Wright Flight's latest escapade.

    All the planes are Jim O'Neil's repaints. They are all wonderful looking. I love his Jasta 5. They are quite amazing. Two of the balloons are Jim's repaints. The middle one, shown in the second picture, was one of Matt's repaints. It is absolutely gorgeous!

    Good to see the game in action, and will be great to see it live at Origins.
    How many of the Wright Flight are coming this year?

    One thing on the SPAD VII numbers...I am pretty certain that the "5" on the Soubiran plane is an "S" for his name, not a number, and hence the remaining planes that Jim did such a great job on should not have numbers at all!
