Skytrex Fokker E1


I have not had much chance for modelling lately, let alone playing but have finally finished a couple of E1s. These were the first true fighters with an mg firing through the propellor arc using mechanical interruptor gear. They were so successful in shooting down the RFC antiquated BE2s that this period of the war was known as the Fokker Scourge.

  1. John,

    Those look like Eindeker I's to me; not DR 1's?

  2. Dear Greg
    Ouch, absolutely right. My senility is taking hold again. I will edit the entry.
