Hi!
I have been busy scratch building a Caudron G3 in 1/32,and i'm at the stage where i need to build in the aircraft's identity,what i'm asking for, is help in selecting an interesting candidate to model.I have looked at the possibilities in the the windsock data files and i am considering hard,but im just wondering whether someone out there has a more intersting alternative?

Try, "Color Profiles of World War One Combat Planes by Apostalo & Bignozzi, Cresent Pub. 1974". It has a whole chapter on the Caudron types if memory serves.

I have found this piece of reference material from a Russian site,it could be of interest to some modellers on this forum,especially those who might be interested in having a go at resin casting your own bit's and pieces.
