In the movie "the Red Baron", Werner Voss mentions switching out the Oberursel Rotary engine on his Fokker Dr 1 with a captured British Gnome Monosoupape. In reality, there would have been no benefit to doing this, as the Oberursel was a direct copy of the Gnome, and had exactly the same performance. It is later suggested that this modification lead up to Voss' fatal crash, but Voss did not die in a crash- he was shot down by a squadron of Se5a's commanded by British ace James McCudden.
