This site lists over 239 types of WWI aircraft (from trainers to Zeppelins) link What is your favorite Allied plane to game with? My top 5 are
Sopwith Camel (with Snoopy of course)
Spad VII
Neuport 12
Curtis JN-4
Roral Aircraft Factory SE 5 Note – was not aware of the Submarine P.B 31.E until looking at this site – some interesting ideas The site has quite a few ads on the boarders and occasional pop up – but a lot of really good information in multiple sections on each aircraft page covering lots of specs, pics and details |

My all-time Allied favorite is the Brisfit, with cheatin' twin Lewis MGs in the rear. I even carried a copy of a rare photo of one to "prove" it existed!
I had 8-10 kills in it until 5 bad guy Triplanes ganged up on me! Even still, I shot down 3 of them and put big holes in the rest!
Good ol' "Triplane" rules, from the "Mustangs and Messerschmidt's" people! |

d88mm – specs on plane (Bristol F.2) says it came with either 1 or 2 7.7mm Lewis guns in the back 1 in the front – some nice firepower |

Sopwith Camel (and Snoopy!) Love that turning radius! Airco DH2– brilliant early solution to the Fokker Scourge, and one of the coolest-looking craft of the war. SE5a— the speed is killer. Sopwith Snipe is also fun, as is the Sopwith Triplane. |

Snoopy's Sopwith camel.
I would prefer to have the doghouse in the miniature. Or model. |

The Sopwith Snipe is perhaps the one I've had the most fun on the gaming table with. The Airco DH.2 wins for looks, though! |

After a lot of games (Wings of Glory) – I finally realised my favourite WW1 scout is the Nieuport 17. Albert Ball thought the same! |

Hanriot HD1
Airco DH5
Nieuport 11
SPAD xiii
Sopwith Pup I game a lot of early air war and like Nieuports vs Fokker Eindeckers.
Also like the Italian front Hanriots vs Austrians |

I've always been an SE5a fan. |

Se5a though I have a soft spot for the Sopwith Triplane. |
