Albatros D.V Luftstreitkrafte Jagdstaffel 79b, Hans Bohning, Villers le Sec, France, Spring 1918 (1:48) by Item Number: AA37805 After serving in combat with a field artillery regiment, Leutnant Hans B�hning transferred to the Fliegertruppe in 1916 and saw duty on 2-seaters before being trained as a fighter pilot. He was initially posted to Jasta 36 where he scored his first 4 victories. He was transferred to Jasta 76 where he scored his 5th victory.
In January 1918 Bohning transferred to Jasta 79b as commander and took his victory tally to 17. One of his best recognised aircraft during this period was this distinctive blue and white striped Albatros DVa with its Ace of Spades insignia.
On 20th September, two days after his final victory, B�hning was wounded flying a Fokker DVII. Upon his recovery he took over Jasta 32b on 1st November, just eleven days before the Armistice was signed. Hans B�hning died in October 1934 at the age of 41 following a glider crash.
The model features a wood-grain effect propeller and realistic rigging.
