Slec/Belair Sopwith TABLOID- electric scale 38.25 inch kit

Slec/Belair Sopwith TABLOID- electric scale 38.25 inch kit by Peter Rake

The Sopwith Tabloid was a British biplane, originally designed as sports aircraft and later adapted for military use. They were among the first types to be built by the Sopwith Aviation Company. The “Tabloid”, so named because of its small size, caused a sensation when it made its first public appearance. 

Single-seat variants of the Tabloid went into production in 1914 and 36 eventually entered service with the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS). Deployed to France at the outbreak of the First World War, Tabloids were used as fast scouts.
