I’m not sure there’s evidence of the WW1 1/32 tulip fever winding down yet. Three of my club posse at Romsey are now wingnutters, so expect at least 7 builds on the Telford Club stand.
2 yrs ago Ron Kookjes pfalz was the only large WW1 entry at Telford. There were at least 8 last year.
I expect to see a lot of WNW around Telford next week.

My hunches for the next couple are a Hanriot or DH5. 1.5 Strutter is highly likely.


Anyone at Telford, IPMS Romsey are on 2f so pop in!

I would love to see a  B.E.2c with options for some of the experimental gun mounts. I think it has great historic significance in the advancement of aviation on both sides during the Fokker scourge.

Once they get the Lancaster project done and get back to WW1 we should see even more releases.

I wonder if we will have a surprise release on 11/11   ;)

Hopefully that Le Rhone bone ( #32075 *in development* ) they tossed out a few weeks ago is the surprise, Juan...which if it is means no Strutter, alas....so again, I bang the DH5 drum.

Well, we know where the engine sits - can we extrapolate the rest of the aeroplane from that?

How about a Macchi M14

Yes!  With only one point we can extrapolate in any direction we want to!

I was going to say it isn't going to be a pusher - but then I couldn't find any LeRhone pushers...

There's a Hanriot shaped hole, hopefully including Coppens 'thistle livery' just begging to be filled...
and I'm staggered that a Viper-powered SE5a remains notablly absent from the ranks.

I'm not sure why the Comic would be different to any other Camel
