Thanks Mike,
I believe (but don't have the Datafile Special to confirm this) that the Dragon was flown by both Flashar & Hippert.  I believe Flashar was flying the Mailed Gauntlet while Hippert flew the Dragon.
Also which sheet has the strange looking face seen on the cover of the Datafile special Vol.1?  If that sheet has any of the other ones that I like it may be the deciding factor!
Thanks,
Dave

>Does anyone know which sheet# the following 1/48 decals are on? there are 5 or 6 >different sheets, and i'm looking for the following decals.

>Baumer's Edelweiss D.V - Sheet No. 195

>Hippert's Dragon D.V - The only dragon I found was Flashar's D.V, a red dragon with
  the tail curling up onto the tail fin and rudder.  That's on Sheet No. 202

>Mai's Bones D.V - Nos. 196 and 199.  Bones decals are identical on both sheets.
  Also, Profile #20 in vol. one, Jagstaffel 5, datafile special says it's Mai's D.Va, 
  not a D.V, February 1918.

Of course, you might know that you wouldn't find two or all three on the same sheet. ;-)

HTH,
Mike
