hitman Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Was that a SopWith Camel or a Spad? Either way its a shameful waste of WW1 relics.
Kenan Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 It may sound hard to believe, but, those pilots there had more chances of surviving crash in that flying bicuicle then in say, kerosin fueled jet.

GGTharos Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Good to see the pilots made it. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
SVK_Fox Posted October 2, 2006 Author Posted October 2, 2006 Was that a SopWith Camel or a Spad? Either way its a shameful waste of WW1 relics. I am not sure what plane was it. I was not there, my girlfriend wanted to see this castle http://down.topwalls.com/pub/topwalls/places/neuschwanstein/neuschwanstein11280.jpg and for her it is more romantic that looking on the planes :) So I offered here this trip.
Pilotasso Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 Man, hard to believe someone came out alive from that irrecognizable amount of debris. Glad they did. .
Deadman Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 On the news tonight he broke both legs and is doing well in the hospital. My wife thinks he has been transfered to a hospital in the Czech Republic. and he should recover fully and he wants to get back in the air as soon as he can.Ya Have to love those crasy men in there flying machines:pilotfly: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/133818-deadmans-cockpit-base-plans/#comment-133824 CNCs and Laser engravers are great but they can't do squat with out a precise set of plans.

It was on Vajnory airfield, last show I expect, as you know, Vajnory is now closed and sold.
Jester_159th Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Was that a SopWith Camel or a Spad? Either way its a shameful waste of WW1 relics. It's a Spad. But don't worry. I can guarentee you that those WWI planes are replicas and not actual aircraft of the period. Glad to hear the pilot's doing ok. Hope he's back in the air soon. It may sound hard to believe, but, those pilots there had more chances of surviving crash in that flying bicuicle then in say, kerosin fueled jet. My Grandfather was a pilot in the RFC during WWI. He told my Father a few stories about amazing escapes, including one of his fellow trainee pilots who stalled and crashed into some trees (supposedly splitting a tree in two) and walked away with a broken nose and a few cuts and bruises. In another incident he saw a plane hit a small ditch while taxiing back after landing. The plane (travelling at less than 10mp/h) nosed over and the pilot died of a broken neck. Apart from the prop the plane was virtually undamaged and was back in service the next day.

Guest johnjacks Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Crash on Airshow Sorry guys, but it was a replica of a Nieuport 17, not a Spad.
BBushe Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 yes, looks like a nieuport to me, but maybe a Nieuport 11? the front was like an 11, with concessions for a different engine. hope the pilot recovers ok.
Jester_159th Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Sorry guys, but it was a replica of a Nieuport 17, not a Spad. My mistake. That'll teach me to reply to posts when my brain's in neutral!!!! :cry:
