SPAD VII RFC 19 Squadron Revisited: Plus Roden SPAD XIII
« on: July 12, 2022, 06:51:00 AM »
So this build was suspended a while back due to Broken H Struts and also cabane strut issues. I have a FB friend, Paul Knight, that had some H struts cast in Brass. This has enabled Me to get back to this kit! So, the upper wing is mounted....Finally  ::)

Great stuff. I think there's a market for those brass struts, amongst other types ;)

Excellent save RAGman, and bravo Paul - they look terrific! I'll bear the strut strength in mind when I get back to my SPAD.

Thanks Zac. I think My strut issues on this one were self created  :-[ That being said caution is always good!
