The trio of triplanes have had their black tails spray painted and rotary engines installed, so will soon be ready for the upper wings to be attached followed by all the fiddly bits including the skids, wheels and so on. I'll fit the twin Spandau machine guns in place before the wings go on, as they are tricky to attach with the wings in place. I'm tidying up as I go along but will do an overall clean up at the end.
Hah! I remember as a kid trying to put together the Revell Fokker Triplane while staying at my aunt's one wet weekend and having to deal with those struts.
ReplyDeleteWhoever designed that kit probably never had to build it!
