I have been looking for aircraft for my Russians and came across this but it MIGHT be a bit too big!!

Fantastic video and model, thanks for the link, if you are looking for 15mm/ 1/100 model aircraft, choices are limited to say the least, only option I'm aware of is Old Glory UK's "Lil Flyin Fokker" range which do carry Camel's, Spads and Nieuports, all of which can do service for either Red or White forces.

Best of luck

Irregular Miniatures also produce a couple of 15mm planes.

I tend to follow the Battlefront idea of having 1/144 planes flying over a 1/100 battlefield and do not think this looks too bad. In this case there are plenty of planes which were used in Russia available in the Wings of Glory range although I am not sure if they actually come with Russian markings.

Shapeways also have a huge range of 1/144th WWI planes available.

You will of course need to provide your own sandpaper  ;)

I often think 1/72 can look ok over 15mm terrain and figs. If you imagine in terms of scale looking down on a battlefield from above, then the plane closer to you in scale terms would appear bigger, so there's a huge range of plastic and increasing range of diecast that you could also consider.

We have been using the 1/144 planes.
