Note: This package, as of 14 March 2017, contains the following two updates: Virtual Cockpit fix for the file "CFS1 Otto B.I Doppeldecker, 1914.zip", i.e. the Otto_BI 1914 Pusher Biplane. These SCASM-processed model files fix the Virtual Cockpit view coordinate bug in Combat Chase view, and the display priority of the two main lateral nacelle struts going up to the wing behind the observer/gunner´s head.
Simple custom panel with scarce instrumentation, with 4 default Sopwith Camel gauges. The panel is loosely based on a photograph of the cockpit and has been adapted from the default Schweizer panel.

CFS1 Otto B.I Doppeldecker, 1914
---------------------------------------
Latest and most advanced version of the Pre-WWI reconnaissance, trainer, and fighter-bomber, "B" Type military pusher biplanes, built in 1914 by Gustav Otto Flugmaschinenwerke. It incorporated several aerodynamic improvements as well as considerably more power. This model had lateral engine radiators, "V"-shaped landing-gear struts without skids, and an in-fuselage fuel tank, and was powered by a 150 Hp, 6-cyl Rapp engine. Top speed was 135 kph (84 mph or 73 kt), as opposed to 110-120 kph of previous 80-100 Hp motorizations. A total of about 150 Otto "B" types were built from 1912 to 1915. The airplane was sturdy, stable, reliable, easy to fly, and saw service early in the Great War.
