Comments by "Big Blue" (@bigblue6917) on "The Siemens-Schuckert D.IV; Best Fighter of the First World War?" video.
It's interesting how many great aircraft arrive just at the wrong time. We all know about the best piston engined aircraft turning up just as the jets age starts. And the best biplanes going into service only to be surpassed by the monoplane. And here again is Germany bringing the best biplane of WW1 into service just as the war end. Something we'll see again some 25 years later with their jets.

@SoloRenegade That is so true. Though as WW2 is often viewed as a continuation of WW1 seeing the biplane reaching its peak in WW2 is rather appropriate.
