I would go with the floh...  ;)

Very interesting aircraft!

Cheers

Decisions, decisions . . . . ;D

Built the Floh recently and really enjoyed it. Painting is a bit tricky because of the thin black outlines, but the kit went together very well.

Not seen the AFB1 before, although I was reading about it's development recently because I have an A. Ball modified SE5 on the bench somewhere.

The Dep doesn't do much for me personally, but the FK10 will be fun.

If I had the pile in my stash I'd be starting the Fokker first because that's the one that appeals the most to me (and I'm now on the look out for one ::))

I look forward to the build which ever you decide to have a go at first

AFB1 without a doubt!

I chose the least known of them and the only vac, since you do such a great job with them - Austin Ball AFB.1.

Ok. As it stands now , the Deperdussin and the FK.10 are tied for first place. Both have five votes between this poll and responses on the 1/72  forum on Hyperscale.  The Floh is a close second with four votes. Both the AFB.1 and V-25 have three each. 
Thanks for participating

I'd love to see AFB1, it's one I'm not at all familiar with. You have a lovely collection of unusual types there. I'd like to them all!

Ok. Final tally is as follows:
Deperdussin and FK.10 are tied at six votes each. I’ll build both as a dual build. Next I’ll build the AFB 1 and Floh together. Then I’ll complete the Fokker V.25 and a surprise vaccuform kit.

Thanks for helping me decide.

Cool! If you need any refs for the Deperdussin let me know, I'm pretty sure I have some squirreled away. They were lovely little aeroplanes.
