Hi Terri, hi all I'm going to Italy on September 24, my annual trip to see family and friends, so if you want I could check in some shops for this model, it looks so cool! Ciao to all

Riccardo , PM sent . So how about some pic's Stephen ! Please share with us all !

Watch one fly................. http://www.mlive.com/grpress/news/index.ssf/2008/09/holland_man_builds_world_war_i.html Looks like a lot of fun. Mark

Review in progress. The top wing is actually not off by much (1mm) Though the ribs are mpre prominent than I like. That can be fixed easily. More to come.

That guy built a real airplane and it flew now that was a cool video thanks for posting it guitarlute101 enjoyed it allot. kelly

Stand by folks the wings may not be that far off. I have been tracking down some info.

Here is a bit of fun from another website. "I purchased both the regular and the special color one; The upper wing has the right number of ribs, though they are prominent. I've not checked the wingspan, but beware the windsock profiles, all of them, since they tend to be somewhat deformed, expecially the 1/48 ones (I suppose this is a scanner issue, I wrote to Ray Rimell about this problem, but he never published any letter. . .) The fuselage profile seems to be a bit out of shape, but surely should not be difficult to correct. The problem is in the special colour decals, since the Arcidiacono fuselage sported the writing "I casi sono due", while the model translates this in ich ... (I think this is the same problem of an avalaible 1/33 card model of the same subect). . ." ". . .Yesterday I've cross-checked the windsock 48 scale plans by Mr. Martin Digmayer with Airmacchi specifications of wingspan and length: the plan is about 2-3 mm too wide as regards the wingspan, so the model wing is close to the specifications (1mm too short). I'm sure the problem is not in the Digmayer's original plans, but depends by the printing process and most of the WS 1/48 plans are afflicted by a non-uniform reduction in length or wingspan, that tends to be overexagerated when the plans are enlarged to 1/32 or 1/28 scale - I realized this problem when I enlarged the Hanriot plans to scratchbuild an 1/32 model of the hd1: the wingspan is 6 mm too short in 1/48 and this is nearly 1 cm in 1/32! It seems that 1/72 scale plans in windsock are more close to scale, so enlarging them could be a solution, when a check is performed after the enlargement is printed. . .after this digression.. you can use the fly upperwing as is."

It just came to me. There are not any beaching dolley parts in the kit. A serious disappointment.

My hunt is over for this kit , I found one ! It is a shame about the tollys , they should be easy to scratch build , RIGHT ? !
