Following the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, factory foreman Jimmy Josser joins the regiment of his employer. While serving on the western front he manages to thwart a plan by German secret agents.

Handley Page V/1500

Acting a German bomber (*) seized by Josser and five other British people.
(*) heavy bomber like Friedrichshafen G.IV or Gotha G.IV (or G.V) or even the Riesenflugzeug (German for "giant aircraft") Zeppelin-Staaken R.VI -the only one with an enclosed cabin-.

Cockpit is a set as the pilot was alone behind a gunner (access to his station was through a passage on the left -instead the seat used by Josser-). Real instrument panel had nothing common with this one (despite the dial hands are movable).

Wreckage is another set (based on a Junkers F13 ?).

Unidentified Aircraft

Supposed to be the V/1500 listed above, but it's clearly a different design, and now has German markings.
