A little bird has fledged.
I bought the kit in April 2008, started on it in March 2009, put it away and picked it up again several times over the years.
There were also many WingnutWings in between and the difference in quality between the two manufacturers was also noticeable in my building mood.
In short, I thought that I would never finish the Roden Albatros D.I again.
However, I am now happy to have decided to finish it after all.
It's by no means a perfect build, and the "red four" on the sides of the fuselage is a bit shaky historically, but I'm happy with the result.
