1:144 Donnet-Denhaut D.D.8 biplace
This is a 1:144 scale model of a Donnet-Denhaut D.D.8 _biplace_ (two-seat) flying boat. A _triplace_ (three-seat) version is also available. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.
The Donnet-Denhaut D.D.8 was a redesign of the well-liked D.D.2 to take advantage of the 200hp Hispano-Suiza 8B engine. The wings were expanded and a third bay of struts were added (as well as diagonal outside struts), and a top-wing generator supplied electricity to a radio. Two forms were built: the two-seater (_biplace_) version with a gunner in the nose, and the three-seater (_triplace_) version with an added gunner in the rear hull. The D.D.8 was a very successful model and roughly 500 were built. They were used by France and the U.S. in both patrol and anti-submarine duties.
