Beautiful, Rick! A real masterpiece. The blue outlines and the window make this plane so interesting. Top work.
Bye,

Early beats Late  :) I really love your work here. And camouflage together with an upper wing window and the more elegant windscreen make this superior to the late version of the Nieuport 17.

Thanks Manni. The clear panel does add a certain interesting look to the wing.

Pretty much done now. I received the Maps I ordered and added the map and roller as well as the Lewis Drum. I will take a series of photos for the final post in the next few days. Thanks to all for the support and encouragement throughout my Tribute Build!

Here are the Final Photos. I have enjoyed building this one as a Tribute to Des. The only Modifications were the Pulsometer and some tubing in  the interior, the Map and Roller, relocating the upper elevator control wire exit ports, and the Lewis gun mount mods.

That really is a wonderful tribute to Des Rick - I am certain that he wouod have appreciated it very much indeed. It has all the hallmarks of a Des build - attention to detail, clean finish, and an excellent build log. Many congratulations on a super result.
