This is turning into one of those "Finish at any cost!" builds, Terri! I admire your determination... it still looks very, very good... ATB, Marc.

Thanks guys , I figuring on maybe starting the rigging on her today . Past few days it has been the DH-2 and I really want this one off the bench so I can start focusing on the Pfalz .

This took me a bit of time , few of the eyelets got plugged up with super glue and needed cleaning out . Not much , but is a start !

Terri,
It’s good to see you’re making some progress. I haven’t been able to get much time at the workbench lately.
I’m looking forward to the final product.

So pleased that you are close to finish this one Terri. It is truly a colourful aeroplane - and every time you see it in the cabinet (it will truly standout!), you will be reminded of your struggle. But you will have won!

Thank you gentlemen  :)

Break out a bottle of champagne , main rigging is flipping done !!! It's not my best rigging efforts , but it will do . Not sure if I will do the landing gear or tail feathers next . We will see on the next up-date .
