Looking great so far Ian. This was my first WW1 aircraft I ever built (of the two I've made !) How are you finding Eduard ? I really like them.

Thanks Colin I do like the kit but had trouble with removing the engine parts with them being so thin and connected to the sprue in so many places [ATTACH]82938.IPB[/ATTACH]

Very true, but that's the price we pay for such fine detail. However, in the profi pack you don't use that part, as it's replaced by a piece of photo etch. Easy to bend, but not break.

Well after a battle I've finally got the wings together. I came so close to bashing it with my fist I couldn't get the struts to sit right There must be an easy way. But its done now
