Hanriot HD.2

---

The Hanriot HD.2 was a French, single seat float plane version of the Hanriot HD.1. It had a larger tail, shorter wings, and mounted 2 Vickers machine guns. It was used by the French as an interceptor, defending seaplane bases, and as an escort for reconnaissance planes.

 

Since it's a float plane, the Hanriot HD.2 works best in the North Sea terrain, or in Flanders, Gibraltar or other terrain that has a lot of water. The plane will actually take off and land from a conventional airfield, but it looks strange to see the floats going under the ground.

 

I have included two skins, a generic linen skin and a 4 color camo skin. The camo skin may be fictitious and uses the French 4 color camo pattern, but with blue and grey colors instead of greens and browns. I have included a set of decals. My skinning templates are included with the download.

Another splendid addition!

 

I've said it before, and I'll probably say it again -- you make wonderful new planes faster than I make mistakes.

 

Congratulations on this and the innovative new terrain.

 

I'm tempted to take a break from cleaning up the 9700 to do some skins. 

 

TK made it possible, but you, ojcar and the rest of us can make it happen.

 

On to August 2014!
