The Albatros C III Meinecke was one of the best German two-seaters of WW1. Created as a reconnaissance aircraft, it proved capable of undertaking a variety of roles: observation, light bombing, strafing ground targets, and escorting bombers. Introduced at the end of 1915, as an improvement of the successful earlier C.I model, it was produced in great numbers and used by many of Germany’s allies. Its construction was so robust it remained in service until the end of the war, some C.IIIs surviving even after the Armistice.

When World War I started in 1914, Emil Meinecke joined the German Fliegertruppe and served first in Germany, then Turkey as an instructor and later as a combat pilot.

Requires: WW1 Rules and Accessories Pack or WW1 Wings of Glory: Starter Set or other compatible WW1 airplane combat rules set to play.

Contents: One 1/144 scale model, base with game stats, variable altitude flying stands, deck of manoeuvre cards
