The biplanes used in World War I included the SPAD (usually the model S.XIII, as opposed to the earlier S.VII and S.XII), which was built by the French company "Societé pour Aviation et ses Dérivés". Although the French acronym may have had the pronunciation "spodd", subsequent American pilots called it the "spadd". The acronym SPAD is also used by modelists for "Simple Plastic Airplane Design".
