Great stuff! One of my favourite aircraft of the war; now I really want to get my hands on this game!

Of course in reality the Sopwith Triplane and Fokker Dr.1 (& D.VII) never met in combat, as the former was withdrawn from active service by the end of 1917, just before the latter were introduced. So the Fokkers would more likely have faced a Sopwith Camel instead. Still an interesting "what might have been" scenario, though.

@nynaiqmal ou mean like the sopwith camel It does just fine in a fight against it.

I like the fact that you have to actually crouch down in order to see your dials and gauges. Very good use of TrackIR.

i wanna see what plane turnes better hits harder and is less easy to take down dr.1 or sopwith tri :p ill always stick with my dr.1 but it would be cool to know

[hangar2247]

Actually the Sopwith triplane was conceived and flown in action before the fokker triplane .The gemans copied the British design.
