What, pray tell, brings you to this answer?

It is indeed a Fokker D.VII!

I believe that you were originally given the honor to host the BCFC #264, but rumor has it that you were not offered enough! I will make you the same offer with the addition of payment in the amount of one full point. If for any reason you can not fulfill the duties of #264, please let us and Breguet know.

Good deal?

The scoreboard at the end of BCFC #263 1/2 is:

"Abgeschossener englisches Flieger aus 1000 m Höhe, alles kaputt !!!"

Highslide JS
Between the gentle men on the right is an up-side down Fokker D.VII rudder with a Balkenkreuse on it, the rudder is cranked to port-side. The twisted and mangled fuselage shows the instrument panel exposed, that is a White faced guage below and between the butts of the Spandaus. Of course there's the signature elevator in plain sight, also the scalloped trailing edge of the top wing is visible.


THE RULES:
All "ACES" with a score of 5.0 or higher must obey the 3.0 hour handicap.
All others with a score of ZERO to 4.99 may start immediately, if not sooner!
ALL VIOLATORS WILL BE DEALT WITH SEVERELY!
And whom ever wins this challenge will have to provide a new one!
If this can not be done for any reason, please let us know and someone will take over as host!


Thank you to all that participated in this challenge and those that wanted to, but haven't joined yet!

HAPPY TRAILS FOKKERJ

Hi Jay,

I had a problem with my modem and telephone, the connection broke down all the time. As it seems reconnecting all the plugs solved the issue.

"Bitte nicht schiessen" means please don't shoot as painted on the wing of a captured Brisfit.

The give away was the typical elevator shape and the writing should have been "englischer" not "englisches" so it was clear it was a fake
