| The Breguet Br14 was one of the most
widely used two-seater aircraft of the
First World War, with most of the Allied
powers making use of it in either its
reconnaisance ( A2) or bombing (B2)
variants. There are many visual differences
between the two types, with the most
obvious being the addition of 'windows'
on each side of the observer's cockpit
on the B2. |
