The Sopwith F.1 "Camel" is one of the most famous aircraft of the Great War.
With 1,294 credited kills the extremly agile and well armed was also the most successful allied fighter plane of its time. The Camel was flown by famous Aces like William Barker and Donald MacLaren.

The Sopwith Camel offered stunning flight characteristics to the experienced pilot. It could out-turn every German aircraft except perhaps the Fokker Triplane. Less experienced pilots however often had difficultties to handle it which led to the saying the Sopwith Camel gives you the choice between a wooden cross, the red cross and the victoria cross.
