This is the best news so far this year. Your scratch building skills are extraordinary - the wood finish and cockpit controls show how skilful a modeller you are. I really look forward to seeing you finish what is a very unusual aircraft.

  To All,
My thanks to you all for your more than generous comments and well wishes.Understand this project is not currently active but I do believe I may well bring this one back to the bench once the Nieuport nears completion. Lord knows I've a multitude of incomplete projects to choose from and the Voisin is as good as all the others. Again thanks to you all and I deeply appreciate you all.
Highest Regards,
Gregory Jouette

Hello, Gregory -

I'm really sorry I've missed this one.

Wow! I did not know you undertook scratch building as well - very impressive work so far.   

As I have said to others, I would not have a clue where to start on a scratch build project ..................

Regards

Dave
