Um,

Okay, that didn't quite sound right. :S

But really! I spent the last 2 days flying (almost) exclusively the Sopwith Camel. Very nice plane! Indeed I actually like it better than the d8 now.

I don't do a lot of head on shooting, always jinking and twisting, and it seems to do every bit as well as the German top. It may be psychological but it actually seems like a more stable yet more maneuverable platform.

I have not had the opportunity to fly it in a dogfight against my nemisies yet, but look out Ziza and *420* ! I'm looking for ya! :evil:

I too love the camel. I also love my d8, but the df gods never let me fly it. I am always allied! So I have learned to appreciate and then that molded into a love! When I do have a chance to fly d8 I kinda get bored. The camel is more fun to fly in my opinion, Mc fate is correct you jink twist and roll! Can't beat that!

LOL!

Funny thing about it is since I've been looking only for allied games the servers seem to put me in German about ¾ of the time! :blink:


(Btw, moon , whenever I see your banner Creedence Clearwater Revival' s Bad Moon On The Rise pops into my head. Trouble is its usually the way I heard it as a little kid "There's a bathroom on the right" :P )

I have to agree with y'all.. I LOVE my Sopwith Camel! I actually like it better than my Fokker D.VIII and I call it my D8 Killer :evil:

Yep, I love the camel also. I usually fly what the game gives me. Yesterday flew six times or so and got the camel every time. I changed to the d8 once to even out a game. It's a good plane and I seem to do ok against the dreaded 8!
...Along came a SPIDER...
