The BE2C
“The B.E.2c is my bus; therefore shall I want.
He maketh me to come down in green pastures.
He leadeth me where I wish not to go.
He maketh me to be sick; he leadeth me astray on cross-country flights.
Yea, though I fly o'er No-Man's Land where mine enemies would compass me about, I fear much evil; for thou art with me; thy joystick and thy prop discomfort me.
Thou preparest a crash for me in the presence of mine enemies; thy R.A.F. anointeth my hair with oil, thy tank leaketh badly.
Surely to goodness thou shalt not follow me all the days of my life, else I shall dwell in the house of Colney Hatch* for ever.”
*on Google, “Colney Hatch” turns out to be a lunatic asylum.
The BE2 was used as frontline recon plane up to the end of summer of 1917 where it was shot down in droves. Indispensable as cannon fodder for the Albatrosses in a Bloody April scenario. Blessed with a observer sitting in the front seat and a very cramped field of fire for the sole MG. Very stable which is good for a training A/C but not for a frontline aircraft supposed to be unstable and thus maneuverable.

A rather hopeless attempt to make a decent single seat fighter out of the hopeless BE2. Also used in home defence against Zeppelins. Good for: scenarios showing the technology leaps and also in Zeppelin scenarios.
