Farman M.F.7

The gentle Maurice Farman M.F.7 "Longhorn", aka the "Type 1913", was used in a variety of roles in 1914-1915, and -- due to its forgiving characteristics -- it served even longer as a trainer. It served in at least eleven escadrilles with Aviation Militaire and it was also used operationally by Belgium, Greece, Italy, Japan, Russia and Spain. As early as 1915, MF7s were used for bombing, balloon attack, and as a fighter/escort for other MF7s. When the war started, five of the 23 French escadrilles were M.F.7 units.

Dux built the MF.7 for Russia with a modified nacelle nose and crew seats and an 80hp Gnome rotary.
