Corgi 1:48 Fokker E.II Diecast Model Airplane AA28701 Few aeroplanes have had such a dramatic impact on the history of aerial warfare as the Fokker Eindecker series of monoplanes, aircraft which are regarded as the first true fighter aircraft in the history of aviation. It was not that these single-wing aircraft were such advanced aeronautical designs, as many of the world’s successful early aircraft were monoplanes (such as the Bleriot XI which crossed the English Channel in 1909), however, they did make use of a particularly sinister innovation. The introduction of interrupter gear synchronised the aircraft’s machine-gun to fire through the arc of the propeller, only allowing it to operate once the blade was clear & crucially, in the pilot’s direct line of sight. For the first time, an aeroplane had been specifically introduced to hunt & destroy other aircraft – the day of the fighter aeroplane had arrived. Despite having a dramatic impact on the Western Front, the Eindecker was still a relatively primitive aircraft & required an immense amount of skill in order to be flown well. This was illustrated by eager young Luftstreitkräfte pilot Baron Kurt von Crailsheim, who on being posted to FFA 53 in the summer of 1915, had his & the unit’s first aerial victory by 22nd September. Just a few days later, he crashed the twitchy Eindecker whilst attempting a landing at Monthois airfield, which resulted in his fighter being written off. He later received a new replacement aircraft, which he once again painted in his personal colours, but was to be the machine which claimed his life. Suffering a similar landing accident on 30th December 1915, his injuries would prove so severe that he died in hospital five days later. ...

Aviation 72 1:72 Folland Gnat Diecast Model Airplane AV-72-22-001 The Folland Gnat was a small, swept-wing British subsonic jet trainer & light fighter aircraft developed for the Royal Air Force, & flown extensively by the Indian Air Force. It was designed by W.E.W. Petter, & first flew in 1955. Although RAF interest waned in its possible use as a fighter, the Gnat was modified to meet the 1957 Trainer

Specification T.185D that called for an advanced two-seat trainer that could transition pilots between the current DH Vampire T 11 & operational fighters such as the English Electric Lightning. After review of Folland's proposals, an initial contract for 14 modified Gnat trainers was issued in 7 January 1958. The Folland Fo.144 Gnat Trainer served in the RAF with the designation Gnat T Mk 1. It was notable as the demonstration aircraft of the Red Arrows aerobatic display team between 1964, when the team was formed, & 1979, when it was replaced by the Hawk. When the RAF sold off its Gnats, many were bought by private collectors & some subsequently appeared in the 1991 comedy film Hot Shots!
