As far as all WWI fliers of all nations he is the one guy I have completely ignored...can't help it. So I know nothing of his aircraft.

 Boggie,
LOL my old adopted Texan friend.Not a wide body himself but likely needed a wide body Fokker. You know so there'd be extra room for the morphine viles.

This must be my third or fourth plea for a WNW Austro-Hungarian Oeffag D.III kit. Think of all the marking options and paint jobs. Besides having a Austro-Daimaler engine, you can have two A-H machine guns!

Having just picked up the book The Happy Warrior, about McCudden, I broke down and bought the DH2. It came to 92.88 Cdn via Paypal  :'( . I will be putting off some of the other purchases I want to get, so I am hoping it will be December at least before they have any new releases. The exhange rate is horrid. I do want the Camel, still hope for a Fokker VIII and putting off a purchase of the FE 2B and Fokker EVI.

My guess is one of the Camel schemes will be that of E5663, as recently reproduced on TVAL's original, airworthy example.

I'm disappointed in how the exchange rates have been going - for birthdays etc my fiancee likes me to do "wishlists" so she doesn't buy a kit I already have. I gave her a printout of five WNW kits, any one of which I'd love...my birthday is Saturday, and I've been contemplating telling her not to do it because of the price increases!

They go like this just before a big release, they are probably busy boxing up all the new kits in preparation for a fanfare release.

.....yes, makes you wonder what all the employees at WNW are doing just now!
Wish they would tell us when announcements are to be made - I want to place an order for a couple of existing kits, but the taxman here seems to charge about the same for two or for more items and then adds a premium on each complete batch.
Makes sense for me to wait to see if I want to add the next release.

Well, were all expecting a Camel (or two), no surprise but what's the "shocker", if any, going to be?? They are far from done, IMHO! :o 8)
