SECOND HAND – Wings of Glory – Phonix D.I (Urban)

$11.14

This Second Hand condition item is unbroken with opened and complete (manually checked by Evan) cards. Cosmetic damage may exist on the box, and is likely quite scuffed. Sometimes these items have never been played with, simply opened and admired and returned to the box by the original owner. Other items the cards show some wear but no damage. Rest assured all cards are complete and in decent condition. Typically this stock exists from collections I’ve bought that were not completely as described, from local players of the game who I’m assisting. If you purchase a 2nd hand item and notice any breakages or damage that I missed, please contact me to discuss a solution! Its very important to me that you feel positive about your purchase of these quite rare items.

Description

The Phönix D.I was a single-seat biplane fighter with a stout and compact design, used by both branches of Austro-Hungarian air service. It was a fast airplane, well-armed and offering good vision, but it was quite difficult to maneuver and had a poor climb rate. Employed first as an escort fighter and fighter, in spite of structural weaknesses, it was favorably received by many pilots, who found it stable, robust, and easy to fly. The D.I was also used effectively as a photo-reconnaissance aircraft.
