Breguet's Crash file #8

I keep forgetting to add the scoreboard:

At the end of round 7:

02.2 Gregvan
02.0 Eric
01.0 Gilles
00.8 Colin Owers

This shouldn't prove too difficult.

Fokker D.I predecessor – M.18 prototype in a two-bay biplane version (1916).

Hello
The large tail fin makes me think it's a Fokker B.III ...
But I'm not a specialist at all...

It is a production Fokker D.I, serial number 210/16. It was toward the end of the production batch of 80 numbered D.140 - 291/16. The fin was standard on most production D.Is.

.8 for Tom for his seemingly hesitant correct guess and .2 for Greg for getting it so absolutely right!

At the end of round #8:

02.4 Gregvan
02.0 Eric
01.0 Gilles
00.8 Colin Owers
00.8 Tom L
