Quang2695 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Dear modellers, I've found a photo of a line of Japanese aircraft from the Rising Decals sheet but I can't seem to make it out the exact type of aircraft. From my point of view, this aircraft could either be a Sopwith Pup or a Nieuport 29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyverns4 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Great image! the ones that I can make out have a twin bay wing which rules out both the Pup an Ni-29. Possibly Salmson 2's? Over 600 were built. Christian, exiled to africa Edited July 5, 2016 by wyverns4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quang2695 Posted July 5, 2016 Author Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Thank you for your answer Christian. I checked out the Salmson 2 and the aircraft in the photo is most likely it. I had been going back and forth between the Avro 504 and Yokosuka K1Y but never suspected the Salmson. Now I notice that the Avro and Yokosuka have different tail fins.
