I sailed on RFA Engadine, pronounced a different way to this film. It was a helicopter training ship, so still involved with aviation. Good times.

The D.V always reminded me of the WWII A6M5 & ME-109G. They were marked improvements overall to the earlier models of their legendary series...but not nearly enough to compete with new allied high performance fighters. And like the Albatross V they soldiered on to the bloody end, still giving a good show in the hands of a quality pilot.

If you were the rear gunner in a Ca.2 or Ca.3, you definitely would want a safety harness or something similar, to insure you did fall over the rail into the rear propeller!

The Austrians built the best Albatross D.3 of the war.They did not have the lower wing failure problems because they strengthen the lower wings and they had much more power for download engines than the german mercedes. Another interesting point is albatross.Also ended up building the fokker D7 and folker didn't produce blueprints.So albatross had to produce reverse engineered blueprints and produced better quality fokker D7 with none of the quality control problems Fokker had. they also were lighter weight

It is such a beautiful plane. I've been really diving into the pioneer era and the Taube was probably obsolete in 1910, forget 1914. Compare this to the 1914 Curtiss Jenny which was only intended as a primary trainer yet years ahead of this.

This channel is addictive & thank you for sharing your knowledge & taking the time to produce such quality material. I had never heard of 'Wing warping' or 'Tractor configuration' before, amongst other things. Also, a big 'Hello' 👋 from Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire. 🏴

Redesigning an old Bleriot and making the best plane of the early war, maybe Fokkers greatest achievement

Just now finding this channel. It’s very well done. Looks like it maybe abandoned. Thanks KZbin algorithm ppl who watch Drachinifel like me would probably love this channel. But no, just finding years later. Even though I’ve searched for content like many times.

In response to the 1914 Gordon Bennett Air Race, Gustave Delage of Nieuport undertook design of a new and relatively small machine. This craft, which he christened the Bebe (Baby) on account of its size, was built in only four months. It featured conventional wood-and-fabric construction with highly staggered, swept-back wings. The lower wing was slightly shorter than the top, possessed only half the surface area, and was secured by distinctive vee struts. The racer was fast and demonstrated a good rate of climb with superlative flying qualities. Because World War I canceled the air race, the Aviation Militaire (French air service) decided to adopt the airplane as the Nieuport 11 scout.

I guess they had to stand inside the framework of the DH2 to swing the prop and then jump out?

Certain mono planes are manageable, certain monoplanes have definitely perished. The Fokker DVIII Bruno Stachel flew had definitely failed.

@VintageTechFan8 ай бұрын
Wasn't the lower wing problem of the D.III and worse D.V one of aerodynamic flutter, mostly due to the V-Strut allowing relatively unimpeded twisting, and a spar not stiff enough in that regard?
