Ernst Udet's LO! Du Doch Nicht!!
Du Doch Nicht inscription on tail of Ernst Udet's aircraft

German ace Ernst Udet painted this phrase on the tail of his Fokker DVII aircraft, considered one of the best fighter aircraft of WWI. As an idiom, it defies exact translation into English, but comes out as something like "No you don't!" or "Definitely not you!" One wonders why he would expect that enemy pilots on his tail would speak German well enough to understand it.Skin was made using MURDOC's template which I thank him for.NOW! there are many different versions of this paint scheme so I just picked my favorite to do the skin,I hope you like it.

Hello Gumpy

"Du doch nicht" translated a little bit accurate in english is:

"You are not yet"

Please forgive my nitpicking...
