Hi everyone

It's probably too late to make it into the Age of Aces campaign, but look at what I just found on the Eduard website... :-)

The detail and fabric effect on the fuselage look awesome!

All the best

You still have time o make it into the campaign ! It'll be fun !

You should give it a try porky, that plastic looks good.

Hi guys! :-)

Don't worry, I'm definitely in the AoA campaign! :-) I've started a Nieuport 17 and Albatros DV... I've never done WW1 before, so I'm hedging my bets that one or other will look presentable!

I'm not sure when Eduard are releasing the Camel, but I bet some of the WW1 master-builders will be producing showstoppers from this one...!! :-)

All the best

Snoopy!
I'll have to put this one on my shelf posed nose to nose with DML's Dr.I.

Seriously, it looks like a great model. I hope they also do a 1/72 version of it.

My thoughts exactly. I figured the AoA planes would be my only WWI planes, but that one looks pretty good and I'm gonna have to give it a try.

Finally Eduard is releasing their 1/48 Sopwith Camel F.1 in a Weekend kit #8450.



Lets see there was;
8055 Sopwith F.1 RNAS B7202, B3782, B6289.
8056 Sopwith F.I Camel B7296, RAF 37, F6022, B6212, D3332, B6313 X 2. Profipack
8057 Sopwith Camel RFC, B7270, B2455, F2137
8058 Sopwith 2F.1 Profipack N??? Tondern raid, N6612, N6620

8060 Sopwith Camel F.1 Dual Combo (Profipack X 2 plastic kits.)
1122 Black Mike Limited Edition 8239D ( what were they thinking?)

nice to see this one come out as a weekend edition . I'm curious to see what the pricing will be . Eduards new release of the fokker d.vII weekend edition sells for 30 bucks here which is high for a kit with no PE and one decal option .

Hi Terri

Eduard are quoting a r.r.p. of $19.95 (US) on their site. I sent the kit to Stephen the other day, along with the new Dual Combo Fokker Dr.I so, hopefully, it should reach Aeroscale's Stateside Hanger very soon.

All the best

Rowan

Age of Aces campaign. The one that ended 5 years ago?

Carl we were reviving it. Didn't you get the memo?

Sheesh! I still have to build the three ( RNAS and the Duel Combo) Profipack Camels in my stash...

Cheers,

Hugh

No worries Hugh. You will find that B3782 is in the RNAS set #8055 and is also the one offered in the Weekend kit.

The Camel Weekend kit arrived today. I had a bit of time yesterday and I looked up the service career of B3782. Very interesting.

Sopwith Camel F.1 B3782 was flown by Lts J. A. Glen and L. A. Breadner of N3 Sqdn RNAS, Bray Dunes, January 1918. She had several combats was written off in May 1918. More later.
