One of the most iconic of all WWI British two-seaters is chronicled in this "Windsock Datafile". Royal Aircraft Factory specialist Paul R. Hare records the development and service of the FE2d, the Rolls-Royce-powered "Fee" which performed steadfast duty over the Western Front in 1917/1918. 1:48 and 1:72 scale drawings are provided by Ian R. Stair, Danilo Renzuli contributed the cover painting, whilst Ronny Bar presents three pages of all-new highly detailed and authentic colour profiles.

Colours and markings, notes, appendices, and contemporary drawings of Rolls Royce "Falcon" engines round off this long overdue companion volume to "Datafile" No.18 on the FE2b.
