Wants update
« on: February 02, 2021, 08:23:57 AM »
I am looking for the following kits in 1/72 scale only:

British: FK3 RE 5 or 7
German: LVG CIV, Aviatik CI, Albatoss BI Sablatning SF 2
French Spad 16, DD-2,8,9,
Caudron 6, Letord 1,2,4,5, Georges levy, Tellier T3
Italian SP 2,3
Austrian Lohner Bi, BII, BVII, Oeffag CI, Albatross BI, HB W13, K class flying boats
Russian Lebed XII


Any idea what kits Choroszy, Ardpol, ludemann have out or coming out in this scale 1/72?

Are things okay at the modelblaumstudio Rhein-Ruhr?

Hi James,
Most of kits you are looking for don't exist or are out of production.

R.E.5 - An old vacuform by Rosepalne, long OOP.
R.E.7 - I saw it on some kit list by Aeroclub but I have no evidence that it actually existed.
Letord 4 - Veterans72 vac, long OOP.
George Levy HB.2 - FSC Dujin resin, probably OOP.
Savoia Pomilio SP.3 - Should be re-released by Modelart by Marco. I have actually orderd one from him and I'm waiting for it to be ready.

Aviatic C.I, Albatros B.I, Sablatnig SF.2, Lohner B.I, B.II. Oeffag C.I, Lebed XII - They are all on Modellbaustudio Rhein-Ruhr's catalogue but are not available and though Mr. Schorsch is well and working, they are unlikely to be re-released.
His latest kits are Etrich-Lohner Taube IV, Bristol-Halberstadt Taube and Hansa-Brandenburg C.I (with and without the 'turm').
Next on his list is the Albatros C.XII.

All the rest of your list are not available in kits.
Ardpol ceased to exist, so no new kits.
The newest kit by Choroszy is the Caudron G.IV.

Thanks Ehud
I would like to buy the marco SP 3 in 1/72 when it comes back out. Could you please post here where I can get one when it does?

Hi James,
Send a PM to John Marco about the SP.3, he is a member of this forum.
I've last heard from him in December, he said he'll let me know when it's ready.
