World War I was the dawning of military aviation. The aircraft of this war were bi-planes (two-winged) which were largely constructed of lightweight wood, and wire to secure and stabilize the wings. Today, the military aircraft enthusiast can purchase World War I model airplane replicas of practically every design that participated in this war.
World War I model airplanes can be fun to build, especially from a historical perspective. If you are considering building a World War I plane it is first suggested that you do some research and information gathering prior to building your model. This information can be of tremendous help in building a historical replica of your WW1 model, not to forget being a source of inspiration and creativity.
