Description

The French Spad VII biplane was one of the most important and successful fighter aircraft of the Great War, fighting on the Allied side. It is associated with the names of many aviation aces such as Guynemer, Fonck, Baracca, Biddle and Lachmann. These fast, ruggedly built aircraft were also produced under licence in the UK and also served with the American Expeditionary Force in France. In the first half of the 1920s, this type played an important role in the air forces of a number of countries, including Czechoslovakia.
