TVAL has a couple of BE2's in their fleet and just started operating an Liberty powered American DH4 which was built for them in Texas and finished at TVAL.  If they did an Albatros 2-seater, it would likely be the C.III, though I personally would like to see the C.VII.

I am really hoping that the next big surprise from Wingnuts will be the BE.2  :)

Yes, the BE.2 is at the top of my Wingnuts wish list too. If not, I would love to scratch build one and try to achieve the translucent CDL effect.

I like the way you think, all of your list would be most welcome, especially the Short 184 and the Caproni.

I have a Caproni Ca3 in 1/72 and the wingspan is impressive even at that scale.

A 184 Sea folder gives lots of options
And a BE2 WOULD LOOK STUNNING.

Pennies are being put aside just in case ;)

Just noticed the interior shots of the AEG in the 'model images' section on the WNW site are now in colour - countdown is on! :)

I'm sorry, Tiger2, but these two pics have been on for a while already...

Yeah but they were sepia-toned before... now they are in full (but not very dramatic) color...

Thanks for the heads up Tiger2.  :) I had missed those.
Only 12 days of Feb left, must be close  ;D

I reckon the colour images are the secret signal, I seem to remember the Felix images were sepia for ages and then shortly after they were swapped for colour versions the kit was released not long after :)

No, next comes a few pages of the instruction manual to leave us guessing about schemes ;)
