Description
The Sopwith Triplane is a wonderful vintage military aircraft. Often overlooked due to the later ‘Sopwith Camel’ biplane model, the Sopwith Triplane was in use by the Royal Navy Air Service in 1917. A consequence of difficulties maintaining the craft (large parts of it would have to be disassembled to reach key components), only a few hundred units were every in operation. Nonetheless, its brief service was successful due to a higher rate of climb and operational ceiling. The Germans were even so impressed by it, their aircraft manufacturers went through a brief phase of trying to create their own triplanes!
