Hello everyone!
The Sopwith 1+1/2 Strutter is a British single- or two-seat multi-role biplane aircraft of the First World War.[1] It was the first British two-seat tractor fighter and the first British aircraft to enter service with a synchronised machine gun. It was given the name 1 1/2 Strutter because of the long and short cabane struts that supported the top wing. The type was operated by both British air services and was in widespread but lacklustre service with the French Aéronautique Militaire.
some personal notes
This is perhaps my best replica yet! It flies great and can't stall bellow 110km/h.
It takes off quite easily and lands like a charm!
It's the first plane with a synchronised gun and about 6000 were made!
this is the only one on this website
I honestly though of an Aircraft of such significance, there would be more people making this plane, apparently not...
* Have fun!*
