Photo Comment

This replica of the DR1 is seen in the colours of the Rad Baron, Baron von Richthofen, probably the most famous German pilot of WWI. The markings are the same as a similar replica displayed at Speyer. Only 320 of these aircraft were built as a response to the Sopwith Triplane and they were beset with problems due to high wing loading.
