Title: DH9 photos
Post by: Jamo on December 07, 2013, 02:21:36 PM: Knut Erik Hagen has taken some excellent photos of the DH9 F.1258 in Museé de l`Air in Paris which are at the WWI-Models website here

http://www.wwi-models.org/Photos/Bri/DH9a/index.html

"This aircraft was built by Waring and Gillow Ltd. of London in 1918 and is considered the most authentic example of the type"

I have hotlinked to some of them below:

Wouldn't this museum aircraft make an interesting subject to model, severe aging effects and all.

Post by: Jamo on December 08, 2013, 10:58:48 AM: One more that might be useful
Title: Re: DH9 photos
Post by: IanB on December 08, 2013, 11:08:10 AM: Thanks for posting those Jamo. I have a few others that I would like to post, but I can't remember where they came from and I'd hate to step on anyone's toes regarding copyright. They certainly came from online and don't have any "watermark" but I can't find them again....should I post them and await comments?

Post by: Jamo on December 08, 2013, 11:10:22 AM: I reckon post them with the disclaimer and if anyone puts their hand up, then acknowledge them. Would be good to see any more useful angles, details etc
Title: Re: DH9 photos
Post by: IanB on December 08, 2013, 12:20:51 PM: OK, here they are.
As stated, I don't remember where these came from. If anyone knows, and they are copyright please tell me and I will either delete them or credit the owner as required.
The first 4 are mine, from Bikaner, India. This may be the aircraft that was recovered and restored in the UK...
