I was excited to see the Roden boxart as it depicts exactly the Strutter I made back in the 90s from a 1/48 Tom's vacform. Like others I was surprised to see a lone aviator depicted - Collishaw - as I had his autobiography 'Air Command' at the time and he detailed the 1916 Oberndorf raid with no mention of flying solo.

Back in the day, I put the following post on the old WWI List
Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter - No3 Wing RNAS, Luxeil 1916
9407, flown by FltSubLt Raymond Collishaw at time of the Oberndorf raid.
The kit is a vacform from Tom's Modelworks with excellent surface detail. You get both single and two-seater fuselages and I opted for the single seater, cutting out the rear position as it was crisper. The lower center section / wing panel joints require a lot of work but with wire spars and some filler a good result can be achieved. This is maybe not a vac for the beginner though. Usual Aeroclub guns and Tom's PE scarff ring etc.
I got some very useful internal details from one of the early RAF videos showing Strutters preparing for take-off - lovely evocative film!
