Re: Fokker Triplane Centenary build *** On 2017 Calendar ***
I checked the stash and I had no triplane kit. Shocking!
I have since remedied that and through the miracle of eBay, a Roden kit should be on its way to me shortly. I was forced, forced I tell you!, to get a camel and a bristol fighter along with it.

I have not been able to find a Fokker Dr1 in my LMS or my local Hobbycraft.

Mail order or eBay time? The Revell kit looks to be quite decent, if you're after 1/72 that is.celt wrote:I have not been able to find a Fokker Dr1 in my LMS or my local Hobbycraft.
The eBay seller was out of the Roden Triplane so they agreed to send me the Eduard kit at no additional cost since I had ordered and paid. Stoked!
All ready to go for this GB.

I've got that one in the stash (albeit a different box). Was tempted to do it but it's outside my usual remit (and would look all wrong with the other movie models!)

Just a reminder that October will be on us sooner than we think, and with it the Triplane GB, so it will be time to warm up those Oberursels soon
