Sandy's bent Dr-1

Actually made it near home base, then a Spad swooped in and shot out my rudder. Tenderly crash landed and survived. Can't see it in this image, but the outer third of the left upper wing was gone. And that starboard aileron still worked, and stayed attached through the crash landing.

In the old RB3D days I got really good at flying a beat to shit DR1. Mainly because I sucked so bad at it I usually pranged a wing or ripped off a landing gear on takeoff. Pretty sure the only time I didn't have damage was sitting on the runway waiting to takeoff. Pretty sure I have a few thousand hours of experience flying the tri-wing aircraft with only 2.5 wings.
