Excellent looking interior, Rick.

That's the finest collection of Fokker D.VII's I've ever seen, Amigo!  Your streaking is second to none.  Can't wait to see Du Doch Nicht completed.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks Amigos! I am moving relatively quickly on this one. The engine is complete except for a bit of work to do on the plug wires. Fuselage is joined and the upper decking glued in place.

That is a lovely collection of Fokkers Rick: all of them are first class so the current build will be joining good company.

I have to be honest. Looking at the photos of the engine I really didn't like the results. So I am about 3/4 of the way through on a replacement (Had a Spare).

Thanks T. The first engine was over weathered and had some issues with paint peeling off of the wires. Used a different material this time .

The second engine is now complete and weathered. I also filled and sanded the side panel lines.
