First I want to thank all of the Forum Members for the tremendous support during this build. When I was ready to quit posting you all inspired Me to be better ;D In particular rayb24 showed just how generous this community is. Thanks Ray. Also thanks to Pete for the Aviattic Rudder and other bits!

First a photo of the disaster. Not to highlight the negative but rather to emphasize what I said above:

An incredible trio of nice triplanes!
Well done, Rick!
-
Rick,
A spectacular finish and my compliments on your determination! These two are real gems and the third is icing on the cake, you've done some lovely work on this project. As for inspiration, well look no further then the effect right here, three DR.1's more or less underway albeit separately, the first about to be entered in the Completed Models section.
I don't know what's next up on your bench but put something soft on the floor, another disaster might prove a little rough on the nerves!
Cheers,
Lance

Glad the magic trio is completed, they all went beautiful.

Way to gut it out, Rick! The final results are well worth the daunting challenges you encountered during this project. A magnificent triumph in scale!

RAGIII,
These are a real pleasure to view. They'll send any one of us on a "Tri-plane Bender", never to recover until we've built one too.

Great finish to the great project. A lovely collection of Dr.Is you have prepared - eye-candies for sure
-
Those planes are just gorgeous. When I build a triplane I'll use the thread as my goto guide. If that's ok by you.

Rick, you shocked me with the disaster photo - I thought it happened AGAIN :o
But your resulting triplanes are very nice and so I could calm down!
All are very nice with the great streaking, I do not know with livery I like more.
It is alse really impressive, that you are able manage those multiple builds at once, in great speed.
Cheers,
Frank

Thanks for looking in and the comments Amigo! You are Still the King of Triplanes 8) I have 19 in the JG1 case with room for 1 more, maybe two if one is another DR1 ::)

Those are three stunning - nay inspirational given the setback - builds. They may be dirty underneath but they also look very realistic. A very colourful group indeed - and what an addition to your display cabinet! How you can manage to keep three models on the go simultaneously just beats me!

Thanks Stephen. It is Modelers like yourself that kept Me on this project! As for 3 at once, I do have to search for parts occasionally ::)

Great job on these birds, Rick. Don't know if you should be called Heir Fokker or Spadman.

Thanks Ken! I appreciate the comment. If it helps you decide I have 12 Fokkers in the case of various types, (6 DR1s'). Three SPADS reside in the other case and 2 more will make 5 8)
