The Red Baron's Triplane

Origin
Manfred Von Richthofen was a German fighter pilot during WW1, respected by allies and enemies alike as one of the greatest pilots in history. He became the leader of Jasta 2 and then Jagdgeschwader 1 (aka the Flying Circus) within a year. On July 6th, 1917, he received a head injury which caused disorientation and temporary partial blindness while in air. Quickly snapping out of it, he pulled his plane out of the spiral and landed safely. Against his doctor's orders he returned to duty on July 25th. However, the wound would cause lasting damage such as headaches and post-flight nausea.

His death is still a matter of controversy among historians due to the differing stories of those that found him. After being shot near the Somme River in Amiens, France, he managed to make a rough landing on Bray-Corbie road, just north of the village of Vaux-sur-Somme. The bullet wound pierced his heart and lung, causing severe damage. However, his plane retained very little damage, and was later disassembled by trophy hunters. His last words are thought to be "kaput".

Effects
When flown, the plane retains the skills it learned from the many dogfights the Baron had put it through. However, it is prone to causing the rider damage either through accidents or small crashes.

Collection
The pieces were collected from various Warehouse agents scattered across Europe and America. Several former Warehouse 12 agents were temporarily called to help in the recall, rather than having a part of the artifact fall into the wrong hands. They were finally reassembled into the working plane in 1922. It was flown by Artie in the novel "A Touch of Fever".
