A British monoplane introduced in 1916, it didnt see much service as it was criticized for its high landing speed. Many became private aircraft or trainer planes. Despite its impressive top speed and climb rate, only 33 were sent to the front. The plane has difficulty landing as the thin tires cause horizontal movement and the plane has a very difficult time taking off. However, the manuverability is excellent

Top Speed: 135mph
Landing Speed: 90mph
Stall Speed: 80mph
