Description

This is a full-color 3D print of Sopwith 1B1  bomber (1½ Strutter) №185 of Slt. Auguste Faidide of Escadrille Sop 107.  №185 was captured when Faidide lost his bearings and landed behind German lines.  Escadrille 107 chose as their logo the ancient Egyptian godess Wadjet, cobra-form protector of Lower Egypt, and the cross of Lorraine was a personal emblem.  Escadrille 107 previously flew Voisin aircraft, and they switched to Breguet 14s in early 1918.
