Presentation at the February 13th, 2016, Meeting of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Chapter of the League of WWI Aviation Historians.
Ordered by the Italians from a French manufacturer with nothing else original to do, the Hanriot HD.1 was an excellent fighter from the designer of the disastrous little Ponnier biplane. Often identified as a Sopwith Camel over the Italian front where it primarily served, it produced a great number of Italian aces and was flown by three of Belgium’s five ace, including balloon busting ace of aces Willy Coppens, Silvio Scaroni, André de Meulemeester …and don’t forget the one Charles Nungesser flew in the movies!
