Whooaahh, impressive!
Was that Bristol's first aircraft type?
Has some resemblance to Wright's fliers, isn't it?

It's more akin to the Farman III - one might even call it a 'tribute aircraft'.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

A great piece of modelling, Vacant, that really does look the business. A proper cat's cradle of rigging, you must be a man with deep reserves of patience!
