Fokker DR1 for CFS2
Visual Model by Mark W. Steckel
Air File and DP reworked from stock CFS2 planes by Mark W. Steckel
Sound aliased to stock CFS2 Zero
Red Baron DR I 127/17 repaint by Joe Nageotte.

Installation:
Unzip (with 'use folder names' checked) to temp folder or workdesk. Drag folder "Fokker DR1" into your aircraft folder in CFS2.

This is a 'frame friendly' multi-res model.

DISCLAIMER:
Okay, I gave up on this thing. I simply don't have the time required to get it all finished up and fine-tuned. But enough people have asked about it that I decided to offer it "as is" to anyone that wants it.
Be aware though, this plane has problems. The panel bitmap is too big and causes a 5-second freeze when changing view modes. I avoid the panel veiw because of this. (Edit part by Joe) Mark has fixed the panel change over. (end edit).
Also, the air file is a mess. I tried hard to research and input all the numbers that seemed to be important but overall I don't think it's even close to correct. This is a science I just don't 'get'.
I do enjoy flying it, I just don't think it's accurate. About the only thing that seems accurate is that she lifts off as soon as the tail comes up, and climbs effortlessly. It doesn't want to come down though. I am only able to land by shutting the engine off (Ctrl+Shift+F1) and gliding down the last 10 feet to the runway.
Also, there are no guages in virtual cockpit.
END OF DISCLAIMER

(More edit by Joe) Mark had done a wonderfull job of painting Fritz Kempf's plane and I feel somewhat shamed for painting it over as the Red Barons Fok DrI 127/17. I hope that everyone enjoys this version. (end edit).

The only thing I really like about the plane is the skin, which I worked hard on. Thanks to Jonny C ("352nd_Jonny_C") for helping me with my German launguage skills. :) And thanks to Mike Wagner ("Moparmike") for offering his help with the gauges. Although in the end I didn't take him up on this, I still appreciate the offer.

If anyone wants to have the FSC file for this plane, email me at msteckel@ix.netcom.com and I'll send it too you to tinker with. All I ask is that if you fix it up and re-post it, you include my name as original (albiet lousy) designer. :)
