Title: Salmson 2-A2 Lots of reference
Post by: rhwinter on August 04, 2014, 12:00:05 AM

Hi all,
I recently found this site on the WWW with a LOT of pics, plans etc. of the Salmson 2 A2:

I think this will help me with my WnW Salmson (USAS) and hope it may be useful to you too.

Yes Richard those were posted by Jim Landon, he built a 1/16 scale scratchbuilt Salmson 2A2 about ten years ago and was quite active on the wwi mailing list, he also did substantial research on turnbuckles used on WW1 aircraft.

   A couple of really good Nieuport 28 and Spad detail shots mixed in there Dave. Very useful as I labour away at my "28", and also expensive as I order a different GasPatch Lewis Gun set! (Actually I think i'll just change the cocking handles a bit!) Thanks for sharing this stuff.
Cheers,
Lance
