Nieuport 17


[Picture from Wikipedia]

I saw this and couldn't resist a flashback to elementary school days. The first model airplane I ever assembled was a French Nieuport 17, a World War I fighter with a machine gun on top of the top wing. It was a well-respected plane for its time.

Here is a video of the plane in flight.

Geezer question: Do kids even build models these days?
