This beast was the chosen mount of german ace Werner voss who died attacking 7 british se5A aces including James McCudden a leading british ace, he forced 3 from the fight and damaged all of them overall he lasted over 10 minuets at some point a lone red nosed albatross D.V made an attempt to help Voss but a british pilot shot his engine and he crash landed,in a head on pass a british plane fired a burst into his side Voss continued his corse probably wounded or dead he then went into a shallow dive and the british pilots put two more bursts in untill the fokker was near to the ground, one british pilot thought he saw the fokker going into what looked like a landing glide but stalled and the crash only left the rudder intact.....
Later McCudden said "His flying was wonderful, his courage magnificent and in my opinion he was the bravest German airman whom it has been my privilege to see fight."

    I feel it dosnt make much difference when you fly it but lol I have a build style I like to folow so all my fuselages are very similar and most are elongated..... I build around a seat so yeah lol it's kinda hard I made the horizontal one that shape because of the fuselage looked total DERP with a kite shaped one and... It ends up having some flight issues with that design lol I amke terrible replicas because I change stuff to accommodate my own style of building (I hope you realize that none of my planes whatsoever are any form of replica I just say replica to signify it is a lot more alike in appearance to the real one than all my other planes! @A5mod3us

    @PlanesOfOld In fact, if you just fixes the horizontal and vertical stabilizers the fuselage length wouldn't be that apparent.

    Well, yes, the fuselage is noticeably longer, and the vertical stabilizer needs to be about half the size it is, and the horizontal stabilizer needs to be elongated a little, more half-kite shaped. Like I said, I hate to criticize because I love your stuff, but the Dr.1 is super iconic.

    You mean that the fuselage is about one and a half blocks too long because it has to accommodate fuel and 5 block long engines? @A5mod3us
