Keep going, I am sure the finished result will be worth it!

Hear hear Dutch, you've done so well to get to this point and it will be so rewarding once you cross the finish line.

Thanks, Nigel and Zac, and sorry to have taken so long to reply. The N.16 build has gone into “Sleep” mode for a bit, as my energy has unexpectedly been channeled in a new direction:

Thanks Nigel, yes, the Amodel kit has so many engineering issues that as I've mentioned it's going to be about 33% scratchbuilt by the time it's finished. It was time to take a break, and the lure of trying a WnW kit—this will be my first ever—was nagging at me to the point where my defenses started to crumble

Watch out for wing droop on the Fokker, a common problem. Przemol's build has a nice cure if you haven't seen it: https://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=14022.0
