Looking forward to seeing the prototypes. I hope they really do an excellent job on the pilots, more so than on the ww II pilots.

Wonderful!!! Hopefully it won't be a 3 year wait and I couldn't ask for better aircraft choices. Simply a classic pairing with the Fokker and the Sopwith

Here is some WW1 gear to get you guys in the mood
Maybe I can pull this out of mothballs because of this great news !!
The Red Barron , Manfred Von Ricktoffan did not wera a pickelhaube he was in a Uhlan Regament. They wore the Tchapta or a mortar board helmet. It kind of looks like a graduation hat . It was square on top. They placed one on his coffin durring his funeral.
I do not have one.

If I'm looking at the Admiral info correctly, Admiral's second WWI model is the German-captured Sopwith Camel.
If so, I'm disappointed---I would really like to see William Barker's Camel---the one with the white stripes and red heart (second from the bottom).
I sure hope Admiral does a Barker Camel eventually---it would be on my "must buy" list.
