Looking forward to two more beauties from you. A treat for all I am sure.

Rick,
You are certainly redefining "retirement' and "putting your feet up"! No moss growing on that RAG III I'll tell ya, a genuine modelling machine!

It's great to see a fellow enthusiast so obviously enjoying his step into the next phase of life and the pursuit of contentment, go hard!!
Cheers,
Lance

I'm just rigging mine and I notice that there are 2 drag wires each side, both going to the lower wing. Unusual.

I am looking forward to seeing yours rigged. By the way, thanks for the inspiration to do this one!

I will be honored to have you following along! Just wondering if you still have any info on the lower nose panels? Pattern and how many?

Red!

I have to admit that I REALLY like the red option! That being said I am afraid black is the more logical option given that Red was the province of MvR and Jasta 11 at the time this aircraft was around in JG1.

Just catching up Rick: great to see that you are going for another double build: I could not do that as I would lose track of what needed doing next on each model! As for retirement - I have been retired for nearly a decade and I still cannot seem to find the time to speed up to your rate of construction - life just seems to get in the way! So more power to your elbows on the modelling table as you continue to show us how....!!
