Sad news indeed. Had the pleasure to fly with Wrongway on a couple of occasions - he was a good guy. My condolences to his friends & family.

The G. stands for Gosferatu

Yeah - looks a little closer to the black stripes on the tail though! B+W photos are always tricky hahah

I'd guess yellow/black/yellow, Wurttemberg / Jasta colours

Several times I've been completely 100% out of control while severely wounded. The aircraft essentially would act like it would with the pilot killed - a death-spin. No control surface input would do anything. Some of the Bosches have also reported not being able to bail past a certain level of injury. I would imagine that a gunner wounded that badly also wouldn't be able to do much of anything - much less swing a heavy Becker around like it's nothing!

Yeah, I saw em too. In fact, I'm sure one of us said on comms that we were expecting high D7s from the position those two approached from 😄

I found the same moment from Hotlead's perspective! I'm thinking that it looks like he may have become visible when he cocked his guns...

Assuming a 3rd invisible D.VII F that he doesn't get along with...

Yep - to add further insult to injury my pass on that Halb 89% wounded that gunner! One spin and one 'flop' out of a left turn

Hey look! More invisible D7Fs!

That's a beauty...

Some Camel Shenanigan highlights from the last Thursday:
