I have fond memories of building this one in the 1990s in my teens; this one along with the DML Triplane were real eye openers for me, having never played with photoetch before.

Brad I agree this kit is still a good one, some 30 years later.  The kit is well designed and fits together well.  The main areas that show its age are the instruments (they are PE with raised details, I replaced with current decals, PE, and bezels), the machine guns (I replaced with Part Accessories Vickers guns), and no stringer detail on the decking behind the cockpit to the tail (I added very fine mono thread).  I build the DML Fokker E.V kit several years ago and was impressed with the design and fit of that kit as well.
