Albatros D.III (OEF)
From the time of its introduction in early 1917, the Oeffag built Albatros D.III in its various versions was the most successful fighter of the Austro-Hungarian Luftfahrtruppe. Obtaining a license from Albatros in 1916, Oeffag engineers developed a much stronger wing and airframe which could take increasing engine power with little modification. The original series differed little visually from the German D.III, but later series with different engines of increasing power, the nose underwent various designs. This model represents the 153 series with the rounded nose and no spinner to accommodate the high compression 200 HP Daimler engine.

The model, textures, and panel are by Captain Kurt. The airfiles are modified from Gary Aumagher's Albatros D.III. The pilot figures were developed from Wolfi's freeware Japanese pilot .fsc source file. The prop spinning texture is by Kelticheart.
Gauges are by Martin Klein, Bastian Hundt, and Horst Weingärtner.
