Morane-Saulnier MS.230[]
Presented in the story as an advanced new prototype of German aircraft industry, faster and very maneuverable, it is given to handles of ace Bruno Stachel (G.Peppard). But airplane is not perfectly settled yet, and Bruno Stachel will crash and die in it. Actually, the aircraft is anachronistic for a WWI story, being in fact a 1929 French Morane Saulnier MS.230, a successful training airplane of the 30’s built at around 1100 samples.
