Hello, very glad to be here
« on: April 09, 2014, 08:12:05 AM »
Hello everyone

I have been into the plastic pastime since 2003 and have been casually researching WW1 for the past year since the completion of my degree which gave me the freedom to finally read for pleasure. My interest in WW1 aviation spiked when I purchased the Wingnut Wings Sopwith Snipe which is proving a joy to build. Consequently I have added the Fokker DVII OAW to my stash.

I am looking forward to watching some of your fabulous builds and share my humble efforts.

All the best, Dan C

Welcome to the forum, Dan.  Glad to have some young blood aboard.  How about showing us that Snipe of yours.
Cheers,
Bud
