• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

WW1 foto albums

CROZBONE from Missouri sent the link to this website in my thread "Lots of pictures from "our planes", but I think, it should have an own thread.

www.flieger-album.de

The "www.flieger-album.de" website is full of material from the German airman Werner Dittmann, who seems to have served throughout the whole war; first as a two-seater pilot; later as a fighter pilot.
The 15 (!) foto albums alone are really worth to dig in for hours! And then, there are more albums by other pilots, by a mechanic, and more - lots of material altogether. We find pictures from the everyday life of the aircrew, aerial photographer's rooms, little ceremony parties, etc. - but the greatest: lots of photos from all types of planes! There are big two-seaters and fighters. We see a captured SPAD VII with German markings, a very good left-side view of a Halberstadt, Roland "Walfisch" and Roland "Haifish", captured Sopwith Pup and Nieuport, Albatros C and D types, crashed planes, and and and...
Even when you can't read German - just have a look (it may take hours).

I highly recommend this site - EVERYONE around here WILL find something interesting ! Here are some apetizers.
Thanks again, CROZBONE !
 
Thank you, Schwarzer Baron
Just had a look into the Turkish site - Interesting to see Turkish versions of the planes. I picked out the Pfalz here.
Cheers; Olham
