15.1k Rodrigo110  7.6 years ago

The Mackerel III was an observation aircraft in World War I, sporting powerful engines for the time, and a very long range. The Mackerel was an ideal spotter with its twin cockpits, each having lots of visibility. The Mackerel III was discontinued in 1919 following the years after the war, yet it went down in time as a great and reliable aircraft.
