What Could It Be?
July 19, 2014
This past week while checking for any updates on WNW’s site, I was happy to see another model announcement due to be released at the end of July. I have been checking all of my usual sites more regularly sine 2014 is the centenary for WWI. If you click on 32040, WNW states that the model is “Probably the single most important German aircraft of the First World War”. What could it be? In no particular order here is what I can come up with, but I don’t have any idea based on what they have already released: Halberstadt D.II, Fokker Dr I Triplane, Fokker D. VIII, Albatros D. III, Taube, AEG C.IV, Albatros C.VII, DFW C.V, other? I guess we have a couple more weeks to find out.

My guess is the D. VII.
HA!!! Should have clicked the link first. It is the DFW C.V
I would have guessed it would be the D.VII as well, but they already have a bunch of those released. I maybe wished it was the D.VIII Razor or Fokker Dr.I Triplane. It really came down to the Albatros D. III, Taube, AEG C.IV, Albatros C.VII, DFW C.V. The DFW C.V isn’t a glamorous plane, but the manufactured/operated a ton of them. I wonder how many were shot down during the war?
