If you've been following the recent build posts, you will be able to appreciate that, after the time and effort put into building Microaces 1/24th scale Airco DH2, it's nice to see that it also has great flying characteristics. A much different experience to the pushrod controlled kits but all the more rewarding for it. Lots of interaction between rudder and throttle for scale like flight and a truly pleasing cruising speed that's not unrealistic for such a small model. And when it's not cruisin

The Airco DH.9 with its BHP engine was notoriously unreliable - the fitting of the American ‘Liberty’ V-12 to produce the DH.9A resulted in a far more capable machine. #WW1 #ww1history #greatwar #airco #warbirds | Daniel J Wheatcroft

BHP 200 six cylinder engine aboard the Historic Aircraft Collection’s Airco DH.9. The BHP did not prove reliable in wartime service, and the American Liberty V-12 powered DH.9A was much more successful. #WW1 #ww1history #greatwar #dehavilland #warbirds | Daniel J Wheatcroft

The introduction of the Airco DH.9 was somewhat marred by a run of engine trouble with the six cylinder BHP. This was addressed by the Puma, and then ultimately the Liberty V12 in the DH.9A. Trenchard selected the DH.9 for use in his new independent strategic bombing force, and thus the type became Britain’s first strategic bomber #warbirds #ww1 #ww1history #dehavilland #history | Daniel J Wheatcroft

Airco DH4 & DH9: The Fast and Flawed Bombers of WWI That Shaped Future Designs The Airco DH.4, first flown in 1916, was a powerhouse of its era, reaching a blistering 143 mph and often outrunning enemy fighters. However, its design was flawed, placing a massive fuel tank between the pilot and observer, making communication nearly impossible. Its successor, the DH.9, debuted in 1917 aiming to fix these issues but was hampered by unreliable, underpowered engines. Despite these setbacks, both aircr

WW1 Airco DH9 Bomber cockpit. This was the first British strategic bomber and was somewhat successful in its role. Powered by a Beardmore Halford Pullinger (BHP) 230hp 6 cylinder inline engine, it initially suffered poor engine reliability. Can you imagine flying this across Europe at 10-15,000ft and only 70mph?? #WW1 #aviationlovers #aviation #warbirds #unique #pilotlife #exclusive #inspiration #Amazing #heroes #Wow | David Petters

One of two Airco DH.9s resident at Duxford - the other is airworthy. Both are equipped with six-cylinder in-line engines; something that was troublesome at the beginning of the type’s career. #ww1 #ww1history #dehavilland #warbirds #aviationlovers | Daniel J Wheatcroft
