Allied & Axis Propeller Aircraft

1/48 1918 SE5a Biplane RAF No 74Sqn K Caldwell

Royal Aircraft Factory S.E.5a (Scout Experimental 5) WWI British fighter aircraft of Major Keith Logan Caldwell, RAF No 74Sqn, Clairmarais, France, September 1918. The SE5a was a very nimble aircraft described by some as the Spitfire of World War One. New Zealander "Grid" Caldwell was a celebrated pilot whose reputation grew following a mid-air collision. As his damaged aircraft was spinning earthwards, he was seen to step out on the wing to attempt a repair. All the while keeping one foot on the rudder to help control the aircraft's descent. Knowing a crash landing was inevitable, he managed to bring the SE5 in low over Allied lines, jumping clear of the aircraft seconds before it hit the ground. Allied troops could hardly believe what they just saw, as "Grid" calmly strolled back towards their positions. Diecast model with rotating prop, crew figure, fine rigging, and display stand. Approx. 14cm x 19cm ( 5.5" x 7.5")

Albatros Flugzeugwerke Albatros D.V Fighter of Leutnant R Wolf, Jasta 5, Boistrancourt Aerodrome, France. Wolf may not have been one of Jasta 5's most successful pilots but he certainly knew how to decorate an Albatros. The flamboyant scheme on his personal aircraft was influenced by his heritage and featured the blue and white diamonds of the Bavarian coat of arms and crest. Wolf took charge of this D.V in July 1917. Diecast model with rotating prop, crew figure, and display stand. Approx. 15cm x 19cm (6" x 7.5").

Fokker E.III Eindecker 105/15, mono wing fighter. Believed to be the plane flown by Vizefeldwebel Ernst Udet when he scored his first aerial victory. Udet ended the war with 62 confirmed victories, the most successful air ace to survive the Great War. The Eindecker was the first aeroplane specifically designed to hunt other aeroplanes. Able to fire its machine gun through the arc of the prop, the pilot just had to aim his plane at the target and shoot. Diecast metal model with plastic parts. Detailed rigging, rotating prop, and fixed landing gear. Comes with a pilot figure and display stand. This cool model is approx. 15cm x 21cm x 5cm (6" x 8.25" x 2").

Commander of Royal Bavarian Jasta 23 at the beginning of August 1917, Kissenberth scored the majority of his 20 aerial victories in this aircraft. Distinctive because of its black fuselage and yellow and white Edelweiss emblems on either side of its fuselage.

1/48 1918 Fokker D VII (OAW) Kurt Monnington

Fokker D VII (OAW) Ltn. Kurt Monnington, Jasta 18, Montingen, August 1918. The D.VII was the Deutsche Luftstreitkrfte's most capable fighter and one of the finest fighting aeroplanes of WWI. With ample power and exceptional low speed performance, the D. VII proved to be a massive thorn in the side of Allied air superiority. While not as streamlined as an Albatros D.Va nor as menacing looking as a Fokker Dr.1, it proved to be a thoroughbred fighting machine, respected and feared by Allied airmen. In August 1918 alone, Fokker D.VIIs accounted for 565 Allied aircraft destroyed. Manufacturing was conducted by Fokker at Schwerin, Albatros at Johannisthal, and Osterdeutsche Albatros Werke (OAW) in Poland. Luftstreitkrfte aircraft were typically brightly coloured with highly distinctive markings, mainly to aid combat recognition, but also as an expression of their pilot's confidence and fighting prowess. Jasta 18 were known as the 'Red Noses' and most of the fighters had the black raven insignia on either side of their fuselage. Kurt Monnington also had a skull and crossbones on his aircraft, and ended the war with eight confirmed victories. Highly detailed diecast model, with rotating propeller, pilot figure, and display stand. Approx. 15cm x 18.5cm (6" x 7.25").
