Description
This is a full-color 1:144 3D print of Nieuport 11 N1256 of Adjutant Gervais Raoul Lufbery of Escadrille N124 (Lafayette). Born of an American father and French mother, Lufbery traveled the world before joining the French Foreign Legion and soon joining the Lafayette Escadrille at its formation. He scored sixteen official air victories and thirteen probables with that famous unit before transferring to the USAS’s 94th Pursuit Squadron as their commander. (The 94th was the inheritor of Lafayette Escadrille pilots after the USA joined the war.) He was killed while flying a Nieuport 28 on 19 May 1918 when in combat with a German Rumpler.
