DH9 photos
« on: December 07, 2013, 02:21:36 PM »
Knut Erik Hagen has taken some excellent photos of the DH9 F.1258 in Museé de l`Air in Paris which are at the WWI-Models website here

http://www.wwi-models.org/Photos/Bri/DH9a/index.html

"This aircraft was built by Waring and Gillow Ltd. of London in 1918 and is considered the most authentic example of the type"

I have hotlinked to some of them below:

























Wouldn't this museum aircraft make an interesting subject to model, severe aging effects and all.

Happy Modelling
