A.F.Scrub's Phonix D.I conversion to CFS2 uploaded

Panel configuration conversion to CFS2, aircraft.cfg and .dp by Captain Kurt

Compared with their German counterparts, Austro-Hungarian firms were far less efficient, with approximately twice as many workers being required to build an airplane in 1918. As a result, Austria-Hungary had no choice but to import aircraft from Germany to meet its wartime needs. Nevertheless, the Austro-Hungarian aircraft industry did produce one of the war’s better fighters in the Phönix D. I, but it unfortunately came too late. The Phönix D. I biplane was intended as a replacement for the Hansa-Brandenburg D. I. Although it was produced in smaller numbers (120 D. I, 45 D. II, and 48 D. IIa fighters) than the Aviatik D. I and did not begin entering service until October 1917, the Phönix D-series fighters are generally considered the best fighters designed and produced in Austria-Hungary.

Talk about serendipity; I've just finished reading about Romanian pilots flying the Phonix D.1 on the Italian front.

Thanks Kurt. A nice looking plane!
