Well well. An Albatros B.II too! At $US119 which on today's exchange rates equates to $A 164. Mmmm. Will have to think about that.

I do like the Polikarpov R-1 markings.  Would like to see a bunch more of these to choose from, perhaps from the aftermarket folks.

I had been going to sell my early Ninack, but looking at the new instructions, you could use the new decals on the original release for a couple of the new release options at least, including the R1.
So, if WNW will sell the decals separately, or a fellow forumite obliges, the old kit may suffice.

I know Rowan had been working on some post war decals, including the R1.

The Ninack has a mix of parts for late war/post war planes, the post war kit ought to allow one to do a couple of post war machines utilizing the original release.

We will soon be announcing an alternative decal set for this Nineack and the earlier kit - probably 4-5 options for each kit (around ten in total) including at least one R1. We will also release a small etched set for wire spoked wheels for the 9A and a set of underwing panniers. Another decal set for post-war Bristol Fighters, including T.E.Lawrence's (Lawrence of Arabia) 14 sqn one, will be released at the same time.
