The Snipe entered Squadron service shortly before the end of WWI and the type remained in service until 1926. This superb though non-airworthy replica has recently arrived in the UK from New Zealand. It is destined for the RAF Museum but is on short-term loan to the Shuttleworth Collection. This photo is copyright © Mick Bajcar, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
