WNW Gotha
« on: July 25, 2013, 01:05:49 PM »
I am adding these photos at the request of the builder, Dave Peschke.  He is from the Chicago area and still trying to figure out PhotoBucket.  Dave comments: "Right now I am painting the figures to go with the plane. I even built a wagon with some Historex horses to go with it.  The wing span is 28 inches. The fuselage is 19 inches long. It does take up a bit of room as well as a great deal of my spare time. I spent over three weeks rigging it, a little bit at a time."








I shall never forget my admiration for that German pilot, who single handed, fought seven of us for ten minutes. I saw him go into a fairly steep dive and so I continued to watch, and then saw the triplane hit the ground and disappear into a thousand fragments...James McCudden

I agree.  I look forward to seeing her posed with the figures.
Cheers,
Bud
