this is a probable next one to build. The DH-4 was the only U.S. manufactured aircraft to engage in combat in WW I.

With the 400hp Liberty engine (the most powerful engine of its time) and

a wing span of 42 1/2 feet and 30 feet long it could perform quite well at

a gross weight of 4400 pounds and cruising speed of 125 MPH at sea level.

Lightly loaded it was faster than the German fighters of the time,

right up to the closing days of the war.

That would be outstanding to have a DH-4 for FSX. With my interest in WWI as a youth, I was blessed to have a neighbor who was a gunner aboard a DH4 in WWI. I'd love to fly in a DH-4 like Mr. Lopp did. :applause:
 
yes there will be definitively a dh-4 then, we are working on the lysander actually jankees, empeck could be a problem of our server firewall excluding some attacker on your same ip range, can you pm me here with your ip so that i can check and resolve?
 
Don't forget to include original British version as well with RR Falcon engine :) Are you going to include civilian, post-war versions as well ?

Best regards and good luck!
