Outstanding Terri:  Glad you stuck with it.  It's a rough kit and you made a silk purse out it.  It looks like a cross between a Siemens Shuckert and a Pfalz D.III with three wings.  I guess it's that unique cowling that gives it that look.  Really outstanding Terri.

Thanks for the additional pictures, T.  I do enjoy looking at them.
The rudder and fin remind me of that on a Beechcraft Staggerwing.  It seems unusual for the middle wing chord to be so much smaller than the other wing chords.  Overall, a very cool looking craft.

Exactly right on the rudder. I could never put my finger on it until it was mentioned, but that does look very much like a Staggerwing's rudder.
