Greetings Lance! Nicely done! I especially like the text given as a guide for other modelers. Model On Please!

Lance, it's simply an outstanding kit! What a witness to wonderful craftsmanship and modeling excellence! Congrats!

Lance a stunning build, I have one of these in my stash and I am itching to build it but I will get a couple of WW1 kits under my belt first I hope to start the WNW Albatros D.Va soon

Hi Lance

Absolutely fantastic! What you've done with the engine alone is mind-blowing - pure inspiration all round!

All the best

Rowan

Very nice Lance !

Thanks for the positive comments; coming from Modellers of your skills and records it is encouraging to say the very least!
Cheers,
Lance

Lance, just an outstanding build. Love your picture presentation.

I envy those of you who can build and rig these WWI flying machines.

Joel

Beautiful. What did you use for the cabling? Are those Gaspatch turnbuckles?

Brilliant Lance! Congratulations on the feature!

Mikael

Stunning Lance,I cant wait to start mine now!

Joel, Mikael, and Torchy,
Thanks!
Torchy, it's a genuine "dream Kit"; enjoy the Build but watch the lower wing struts and assembly.
Cheers,
Lance

Bill,
The rigging is all monofil fishing/fly tying line of various thicknesses. The turnbuckles are "Bob's Buckles" Brass Tubing with added eyelets etc; some of the control cables have "double eyelet" connectors.

Cheers,
Lance

On your fantastic kit.... It's nice that the cowelings are off, but mechanics don't put cowels in front of where they work. The panels are leaned against the wing or stacked on the ground, Out of the way (under the wing, a neat pile near the wing tip)left panels on the left side, right on the right.

Personal experience... AND No one will notice.

Hey Capt Tommy,
All in good fun and you are correct in a perfect world. I just tossed them into the photos where ever I thought they'd fit the frame. In my 7800 hours of flight time, mostly fighters, I saw many silly things, including a small access panel placed in my intake so "it wouldn't get damaged or lost"!!
My eventual plan is to enhance the Display base with a small bench or two, a ladder, and proper placement of the panels.
Thanks for the compliment, this Build was a lot of fun and I'm pleased with the invitation to provide a Feature on her. Like nearly all Builds she has a few "warts" but I'm pretty sure I was able to not include them in the photos!
Cheers,
Lance

Fantastic work. I'm constantly surprised by what everyone seems to producing from Wingnut kits. Its just too bad they are outside of my price range.

Fantastic build Lance, seems to be a lot more than just the WNW kit. I sympathise with Stephen about the price of the kits but I suppose if I built one a year it could be a more expensive kit and it would ease the storage/display problem. I used to build ships and build several that took over three years each, the secret being to regard each component as a model in it's own right, something I can't do at the moment with aircraft.

Lance; awesome!
