ITEM DESCRIPTIONS WOW075 Macchi M5 (Charles Hammann) LE12 by Thomas Gunn Miniatures Description The Macchi M5 was a single seater biplane flying boat built by Nieuport-Macchi at Varese, this extremely agile aircraft was powered by an Isotta-Fraschini V.6 engine with a top speed of 117 MPH. The Italians had captured a Lohner type flying boat earlier in the war, and this formed the basis for the first Macchi designs. Because the aircraft design was a 'pusher' type with the propeller at the rear. There was no need for synchronisation of the 2 forward firing Vickers machine guns, this gave the Macchi a 'fighter' like quality which made it more than a match for its Axis opponents. Over 240 were built during the course of WW1 with some seeing service post-war up until the early 1920's. The Macchi was primarily used in the maritime reconnaissance role by the Italian Naval Air Service, however it could also be utilised as a light bomber on targets of opportunity as and when they presented themselves. The United States also used the M5 during WW1 and it was in one of these aircraft that Ensign Charles Hammann was awarded the US Naval Aviation Service's first Medal of Honour, when he landed his aircraft under fire to rescue a fellow aviator.
