You can say that again! Since beginning my Eindecker obsession last fall I’ve amassed a small library of Fokker material (in addition to the stuff I already had) and haven’t been able to wade through a quarter of it to date… I feel like Homer Simpson when he told Marge “I can’t learn anything new without it pushing something old out of my brain…”

Gents,

Please excuse resurrecting this thread, but I am hoping that the builders of this plane might help with my wing warping query.

Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim,
You can download my fully detailed build log from my web site if it'll help.

Just go to the relevant 'Logs' page (1) and select the Fokker E.IV PDF icon.
Also PM me if you need to.
The link below is to a site about Achim Engles, builder of WW1 aircraft, including the Fokker.
