Nice. #3 is a real Pfalz-eye view.
Show us its front then, Mike.

Of course, the still shots don't show all the twirly bits whirling round, so it doesn't look so bad. I'll try some video later.

Seems there are Snipes, and Snipes.
Do the pistons go in and out, or round about?

Haven't tried the Early model yet. On the Late one, you can see the cylinders rotating.

The Snipe was a solid plane and had largely shed the Camel's ugly traits, killing more of its own pilots than Germans.

Try this 114 second MP4 on YT. Not recommended if you suffer from motion sickness.
