Banjoman: You can enlist today (with a start date of February or June 1), but wouldn't make your transfer flight until June 1st.

CW3SF Backspace to 'load' your bombs as your secondary weapon. Usually joysticks have a default button for their secondary weapon. You should be able to customize it in workshop.

CatKnight, you've noted that French pilots must fly from Etampes to their assigned aerodrome, however the field at Etampes is not in WOFF. Might I suggest Saint-Inglevert instead. I am planning on having my pilot serve with MS23 which will be based at Lahoussoye on 1 February, 1915. Flying from Saint-Inglevert would offer a cross-country flight of about 160km with a duration of about an hour and twenty minutes. Here is the map showing what would be a very easy to follow route, (open the image in a new window to view it full size):

Does anyone know if we'll be able to continue the French campaign in October 1915, once the new expansion arrives with the N.10? IIRC we will be getting the CI model. The squadrons require the CI and the A2 models (not to mention the N.12's). Will these squadrons be able to function with only the CI's? I wouldn't want to sit around until the N.11's arrive. Is there any other way to get around it apart from switching to RFC?

Second question - can we keep the rank of the previous pilot, or do we have to start from the bottom again with the new pilot?

And finally, Pol - any chance of more early French planes that could be included in the second expansion containing the Fokker D II?

First question - I'm hoping that an expansion is released by then. Otherwise, no other workaround but to either skip or start a new pilot.

Second question - I say keep the previous rank, but I'll let CatKnight say for sure.

Oops! You're right. I must have had my test pilot in 1917 when I saw Etampes.

OldHat, thanks for your reply. I am counting on the expansion to be released by September (two weeks) and we will be able to continue our campaigns uninterrupted. I'm just wondering if only one variant of N.10 (the CI) will be sufficient to keep the escadrilles operational. Maybe one of the devs would be able to answer it.

Lou: Saint Inglevert it is. Thanks!

Fullofit: I certainly hope so, though I think we'd need a developer to tell us for sure whether the N10C1 is sufficient.

Hey guys, should I complete a survey now?
Or wait until after the first QC mission is flown?

OldHat or CatKnight, as with the French, Koln or Cologne is not on the map for the Germans for a staring point. Any suggestions.

Not for a June start. Closest would be Mariakerke.

Man, I'm going to have one long haul from Ghistilles to Colmar when I need a new airplane!
May I fly one out of Koln?

You all will have to excuse me, I was born ignorant and had a relapse. I was looking in Flanders. Sorry Gents.
