The little one with the shades is way too cool
Ah, the D VII! It was such a superior fighter, after the armistice the Allied wanted ALL of them handed over or scraped!
And it was one of the obstetricians of BMW, their high-compressing straight-six allowed extraordinary power output at great altitude. The Prussian army administration immediately ordered 2000 units, that was 1917.
As a direct result of the lost war and the ban to built airplanes, BMW decided to conquer new frontiers and 1923 they released the R23. The BMW badge is an art-deco-propeller.
So basically this plane is the origin of all the fine Boxers from Munich.
