Nieuport 27 skins of 79a Squadriglia for EmID Nieuport N27_FAS First Eagles 2
This is a  pack of skins focused on the history of the Italian 79a Squadriglia. 
Historical notes: 
79a Squadriglia of the "Corpo Aeronautico Militare" was formed in November 1916 at the Central Flying School in Arcade, Italy. 
On 13 January 1917, it was deployed to Istrana, with its area of operations being the Asiago Plateau near the ongoing Battles of the Isonzo. 
The new unit flew its first combat mission on 20 January 1917. On 28 March 1917, 3a Sezione was detached for city defense duties. On 10 April 1917, the squadron was attached to 10o Gruppo. A month later, it was transferred to 7o Gruppo. On 2 June 1917, Antonio Reali scored his first aerial victory for the squadron's initial success. On 3 December 1917, the squadron was posted to the 15o Gruppo. In June 1918, it was assigned to the Massia da Caccia (Fighter Mass) before passing to control of the 23o Gruppo. 
The squadron served through war's end. Its wartime record was 4,411 combat sorties flown, with 47 victories achieved in 227 aerial combats. The squadron had suffered five killed. The squadron produced the WW1 Nieuport 27 "Ace of Aces" Marziale Cerutti with 17 victories with this Nieuport model.

Nieuport 27 skins of Escadrille 471 "Second Lafayette Escadrille" for First Eagles 2
This is a full squadron pack of skins & decals focused on the history of the "Second Lafayette Escadrille" - Escadrille 471.
Historical notes:
STRIKE FROM THE AIR THE EARLY YEARS OF THE US AIR FORCES by TERRY C. TREADWELL 
"On 15 February 1918, three former members of the Lafayette Escadrille – Lieutenants Meredith Dowd, Joseph Gill and George Willard – were transferred and joined the 2nd Escadrille Américaine, which was renumbered Esc.N.471 and became known unofficially as the Second Lafayette Escadrille. According to some historians, the squadron accounted for six enemy planes and one balloon, but little else is known about it. How or why it was given the same number as the original Lafayette Escadrille is not known, but it is thought it may have been initiated by the three pilots – Dowd, Gill and Willard – who were transferred to the squadron. There is one other possible explanation, however; the Camp Retranché de Paris Escadrilles numbered from 461 to 470 and the N.471 was created out of increasing demands to defend Paris. It is an accepted fact that both sides were desperate for pilots as the aircrew loss rate was extremely high. It was because of this that the 2nd Escadrille Américaine was created and fifteen other pilots were assigned to the squadron. The ground crews and support personnel were all French and the squadron was put under the command of Lieutenant Le Comte Sanche de Gramont as part of Groupe de Chasse 21, which was under the command of Colonel LeClerc. The squadron formed up at Le Bourget Field and began the task as ‘Defenders of Paris’, with particular attention being paid to the night raids carried out by German bombers. The aircraft supplied to the squadron were Nieuport 27s, used at the time as flight trainers. The mechanics soon fitted night landing flares on the lower wings, but these proved to be totally useless. Their tireless patrols were barely more than just a ‘flexing of muscles’ and the Germans continued to advance; so much so, in fact, that the squadron had to relocate to Château-Thierry, some 37 miles away. Things were now so desperate that orders went out to the pilots to fly low level along the German trenches and shoot everything that moved. This tactic, of course, was bound to take its toll in casualties, and the first to fall was the commanding officer Lieutenant Comte de Gramont on 3 July 1918. His place was taken by Lieutenant Walter L. Avery, USAS, who soon proved his worth by taking part in one of the fiercest ground-strafing missions that took place appropriately on 14 July, Bastille Day.
 For nearly two months the squadron flew virtually continuous strafing missions against the German ground forces, and by the middle of July the tide had been stemmed. The German advance had been halted and they had begun their retreat. The threat to Paris was over and the squadron was disbanded, the Americans being sent to various fighter squadrons. The 2nd Lafayette Escadrille was no more, but it had proved its worth. The transfer of the American pilots from the Lafayette Escadrille to the various USAS squadrons was held up for a period of more than six weeks. They were regarded as ‘civilian pilots’ no longer in the service of France but not recognized as members of the US Air Service. The formation of the 103rd Pursuit Squadron on 18 February saw the problem resolved".

** What you will find in this Nieuport 27 skin Pack:

Winthrop Niles Kellogg and one Nieuport 27 skin for an unknown pilot of the ESc 471.
