The Spad S.VII C1.

This repaint of the classic Spad, is in tribute to a fighter pilot named Roques. Born in Paris in 1897, Roques was a Swiss citizen who joined the Aviation Francais via the Foreign Legion. In addition to the standard SPA 48 cockerel head and number, he decorated his aircraft with a 'jolie demoiselle' devised by his friend and artist Georges Lepape. Roques scored two of his five victories in SPAD VIIs.

I hope you enjoyed!

Great shots Dave, that is a beautiful plane. I have always loved those classic WWI fighters and the Spad VII was one of the best from the middle part of the war.

Your little tribute to the pilot was also interesting. I took the liberty of looking him up and here is what I found about Jacques Roques: http://www.theaerodrome.com/aces/france/roques.html
