OVER FLANDERS FIELDS:
HAT IN THE RING!
NEW FLYABLE AIRCRAFT:
• Nieuport N.28
INITIALLY DEPLOYED BY THE US AIR FORCE - GOOD fighter only hampered by upper wing problems, and the odd spontaneous fire at take off!
• Nieuport N.24
(both British & French versions)
one of the most beautiful designs from nieuport in several variations.
• Nieuport N.24 Bis
(both British & French Versions)
• Nieuport N.17 Bis
based on the n24 design, the n.17 bis unusually for nieuports sported two guns, Lewis over wing and Vickers!
• Fokker E.V "RAZOR"
Late to the fight but notable as the first thick wing mono-wing aircraft. excellent performance from a 110 HP ENGINE.
• Airco D.H.5
BIPLANE WITH a REARWARD STAGGER. LACKING performance at altitude forced this Sturdy craft into the ground attack roll where it excelled. fitted with 4 cooper bombs.
SAID TO BE A SIGHT TO BEHOLD - DH5's DIVING ONTO THE ENEMY vertically!
