Bit of something going on called the "Wings of War" based in Italy.

I picked up Udet's Albatros D.Va for 12.95 USD to see what it was all about. More later.

Wow, that looks like it could be immense amounts of fun. My wife and I have collected a series of cards that punch out into little ships. The game is "Pirates" and it was addictive as all hell. But, we had no one else to play with and it got boring and fell by the wayside. I'll have to see if the gamer shops around here know about this.

Supposedly in 1:144 scale. As you can see the side profile is a bit off. Ok I am trying to be generous.
