Default RE: Knowledge Quiz for Warbird wiz

1 Name the aircraft (should be easy for WWI buffs) - Albatros DIII
2 Name the major design change and the french aircraft they got the idea from - addition of the sesquiplane a-la the Nieuport 11 Bebe
3 Tell me why the wing would rip off (This is harder. hint: they didn't really understand the true reason back then but its something we know of well today and most of us have seen or heard of an RC model crash due to this) - overspeed which caused flutter

Thanks-
Sean
