Title: Hello from Snowy
Post by: Snowy on June 16, 2014, 06:26:34 AM

Hello everyone,

I'm Snowy from Melbourne Australia, looking to start again after many years with some of the newer WWI aircraft models available nowadays. I brought a Wingnuts SE5a a few years ago but have not tackled it yet, being a little nervous of the rigging. I thought I would cut my teeth with a fokker DVII.

Best wishes
Snowy

Hello Snowy and welcome to the forum, so good to see you here, I"m just up the road from you on the south coast of NSW. I look forward to seeing the build of your SE.5a but the Fokker D.VII is a great starter kit. The forum has some very talented members so if you need any advice please feel free to post questions, all the members are very willing to share their knowledge.

Des.

Welcome aboard Snowy! You will surely find all you need here! I am looking forward to your DVII build. Having finished 2 I can say it is a very nice kit to build if you are careful assembling the interior!
