Seagull's first big WW1 bipe brings the quality and craftsmanship you'd expect in a rugged model that's certainly going to turn heads at the flying field!
Lightweight and manoeuvrable, The Nieuport 28 first flew in June 1917. It was the first fighter from the company to employ a standard two-spar wing. The streamlined fuselage was too slim for twin Vickers guns, so one has to be mounted to the fuselage side. After WW1, some went to the USA with a few entering races, albeit with shortened wings!
Seagull's model is big and beautiful with a laser-cut balsa/ply structure, expertly covered in genuine Oracover. Add some nice sport scale touches and you've a very practical model for all seasons.
