Useful reference pics for some WW1 aircraft

[clive_t]

Hi all, just trying to find some reference photos for SPAD SA4 cockpit interior, and in doing so stumbled across this site:

 

http://memorial.flight.free.fr/indexuk.html   (click on 'Aircraft' on the menu on the left hand side of the screen)

 

No exact photos for the SA4, but anyone contemplating doing any of the following might wish to take a quick look:

 

SPAD XIII

Fokker DVII

SE5a

Fokker DRI

Morane AI

Bleriot XI

 

There is also a section for the French post-WW2 aircraft Flamant MD311 - should anyone be interested

 

Apologies if it's already been shared!

Absolutely lovely site, I've super-detailed several SPADs and a Camel based on their photos. The sad part is...a large number of the former 'archive' shots available there seem to have vanished (or perhaps simply been re-sorted). Luckily I had filed the lot away for future reference...but rather unluckily, I lost an undetermined number in a hard-drive crash.

 

Very useful and inspiring, in any case!
