The first operational examples arrived for dispersal at Armee Flug depots in February and March 1917. In the end 1151 airframes of the C.IV were manufactured through July 1918. Wingnut Wings has given us a great example in 1:32. Lets have a look.

Thanks!

Here are a couple of images you won't see anywhere else. Rumpler C.IV 6761/16 and her ground crew. Note the tails up position for testing equipment in level flight attitude.

A very good review of a most excellent kit Stephen. Thank you for taking my thoughts and relaying them. Truly they are quite minor issues and much thought has gone into the production of the kit which excels in most area's.

I was dreading but fairly confident when fitting the upper wing, always aware of the snug fit of WNW parts but still was expecting more hassle than I experienced and she set straight and true without support. I feel a late variant coming on in the future, already AM etch sets are surfacing. Hopefully someone will notice and produce more AM accesssories that suit WW1 Kitsets like this just beg to be displayed in mini-dio's

I encourage anyone interested to take the plunge and give this kit a try. You will not be disappointed. Once I finally and reluctantly declare my build doone I'll post a final opinion of the kit all round.

This is what makes our combined efforts that much better.

Stephen!

What a marvelous review - the best I have ever seen!

You are very kind. Thank you.

Here is a bit of fun. Lion or Lion's head must have been a popular motif on the Rumpler C.IV. . .or a unit identifier. The fellow in the pilot's cockpit is a Gefreiter (Private) Langenheim.
