TECH NOTES

This is a 1/72 Plastic SPAD XIII WWI Fighter from Academy Plastics.
It's for ages 10 and up.

The French built SPAD XIII was one of the most famous fighters of World
War I.  The SPAD used a liquid-cooled inline engine when most aircraft were
equipped with rotary engines.  A powerful and efficient craft, the SPAD was
used for many years.  Armed with one or two Vickers 7.65 mm machine guns
firing through the propeller arc or a deadly 37mm Hotchkiss cannon, the SPAD
was widely feared.

The exterior surface of the plane is detailed with metal seams, bolt

Accurately reproduced biplane construction.
Dual Vickers machine guns mount atop the fuselage.
Realistic landing gear affix to the bottom of the craft.
