Thread: Sopwith Pup "named" planes

  1. #1

    Default Sopwith Pup "named" planes

    Does anyone know if the names for "BABY MINE" of Naval 3 Sqn and later Seaplane-Defence-Flight, and "MINA" of Seaplane-Defence-Flight appeared on both sides of the fuselage, or just one?

    Thanks

    edit: well it appears "MINA" was on both sides with a large "S" on the fuselage decking. (Osprey, Pup Aces of WW1 p94). Not sure about BABY MINE.

    Search on 'Sopwith Pup Baby Mine' shows period images of both sides sporting it's name as well as repro aircraft done the same.

    Everything I have seen has it on both.
