[WWI] Gotha Decals

[Matt Bittner]

I feel the same way as Lance.  I'm working on a WW1-after-the-fact, US
biplane, and hate using the kit decals.  Unfortunately there wasn't a
lot of photographic resources to point me to other schemes for this
specific aircraft.

Very rarely will I pick a kit scheme.  Very, very rarely. ;-)
