History:

Maintenance crews were vital to the operations of the Royal Naval Air Service during World War I, ensuring aircraft were in top condition for the demanding missions at sea and over hostile territory. Refuelling, oiling, and repairing engines were constant tasks, often performed in exposed and challenging environments. Figures like this one capture those essential behind-the-scenes moments that kept aircraft flying, providing modellers with an opportunity to depict the full scope of life on a wartime airfield.
