This will be my two wingy stringy thingy. Looks like a nice straight forward build, then there's the knitting :surprised: They supply the stringy stuff and there are locating holes where it has to go.

Mick, if you don't want to faff around with string use small diameter brass rod......cuts exactly to length and you don't have to worry about it going slack on you. :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2:

I'm gonna join in with this one,a double first for me....
... first Biplane.....
... and first WW1 Aircraft..
..... oh dear,I could be in trouble now!!...

Kinda looking forward to it in a weird sort of way!!:hugging-face:

I'd like to play too, but that means choosing ONE when most of them in the stash are pairs... Two different DH9As, Two Furies... Four CR.32s. FIVE if I count the 1/32 one...

I have too much stuff...

Maybe the Grebe or the Woodcock...

I was thinking of only about my 1/48 stuff - then I remembered the 1/72 candidates, Seafox, HP 0/400, HP Heyford etc. & thought Yes I have too much stuff as well!

I'm not going to decide until the end of the year, I think I have about 15 1/48 biplanes to choose from ( OK, II have several duplicates ), so I reckon I'll be able to choose one that no-one else is building ( SE5A crossed off already )

Cohan ain't looking foward to it for sure, Buddy!!!

Seams as some have now started threads for next year’s GB’s I suggest a Bi-plane GB starting 1st January 2024 until end of April 24. Any Bi-plane any scale.
Any takers?

Would a tri-plane qualify Papa? I like the Fokker 'cos it doesn't seem to have much rigging or wing struts!

You can always build it out of matches....
