Cartridge case delector.

Greg:
What the mechanics did, was to either modify the cartridge case delectors on each side and extend the height or remove and replace them with the larger deflectors. There was enough drag on those large panels to knock off a about 5 miles per hour off of the maximum airspeed.
The Fok.D.VII did not have cartridge case chutes like the Alb.D.III/D.V/D.Va, or the Pfalz D.Types.
