Coming along very nicely Marc, lovely work and inspiring. I have 3 Fokker Triplane kits sitting beside the bench presently: The Encore F.1, the Roden DR.1, and the new Meng version and have settled on which schemes to Build at least a dozen times! The only assured one is the F.1 will be done in the Voss Scheme. For the DR.1's it's two of the all red 425/17, Lothar von Richthofen's yellow highlighted 454/17, and Jasta 19's Hans Korner's "Lightening bolt" 503/17. Once I solve that quandary the next one is which to do first or , like RAGIII, which two to start with?!
I too have reservations concerning that black frame however considering the source of the information I intend to follow the guidance. I am looking forward to this Build immensely, once I solve the foregoing questions this will prove extremely enjoyable. In the interim I'll be following your and Rick's progress closely, great work by both!
Cheers,
Lance
