Aviatik B.1

It's Aviatik not Aviatak or Avitak

reconnaissance on the eastern front

A German two-seater recon plane built by Aviatik. It is actually aviatak's first original design, since the have been copying french planes until then.

Austria, Turkey and even Paraguay operated this plane.

interesting fact, this plane was actually used extensively in africa as a recon plane, and was the actual reason I wanted to build it. The Livery is a eastern front variant.

About 580 were made, which is strange, since such a widely produced aircraft has almost no presence on this website except for some posts mentioning it.

It's a first of its kind on the platform!

Enjoy, it flies just under 120km/h

Take of with rudder left, it tends to veer left on the runway...

Thanks again!
