I'm a patreon but I don't know how to ask a question.. But here is mine . Will you do an episode on the Fokker Triplane.? It is the most recognized AC of WW1 and maybe of all time.
Hey, very likely. Right now it is difficult to get access to museums, but in the future it is a candidate
That's great! I look forward to more WW1 coverage. Minor point, you mention canvas-covered wings at around 4:40. I don't know the German name for the covering, but canvas specifically refers to a type of heavy fabric, while aircraft of course want lighter types. Non-specialist sources often refer to 'canvas-covered' aircraft, so I can understand your confusion. 'Fabric' is a good generic term.
Roger that, I thought it was just a British English or American English thing again
Somewhere, wrapped in old newspaper, in a large cardboard box filled with my old plastic models, I think I have an Albatross. You did such a great job of drawing me in that only now am I thinking of someone from Monty Python saying "Albatross!" ;)
WOW, well done video of the Albatros D. Va.
One small nit-pick with this video. As you are clearly a native German speaker, you frequently "rattle off" German Manufacturers, Squardons and Personnel at a speed which would be normal for you. Sadly, not all of your audience is blessed with that abilty, so if you could either slow down your pronunciation or maybe add subtitles with the names on for us, so we can read the name for ourselves, that would be a help in order to better understand your videos. Other than that, an exellent video as per usual.
Good point, will add a written note next time for any German.
