Lovely! It is great to see yet one more model of an aircraft with Wielkopolska version of Polish checkerboards!
Very fine build all together. Nice streaking!

   Krzysiek,
Outstanding project my old friend. It's really great to see a Fokker D.VII in something other than German colors. Very impressive paint scheme and excellent wing streaking. I have to ask though what is the mascot on her fuselage sides? Blame it on poor eyesight or poor monitor,likely both.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

Thanks for your so welcomed comments :)
This personal emblem of flight instructor Adam Haber-Wlynski represents the naked doll, which was created by mechanics. It refered to famous polish cabaret in the middle 20s last century.
