She's truly lovely, Aviatik!  I love these early kites.  Like the others, I'd like to know about your construction techniques and materials, as well.  The pitch control looks interesting.

Excellent modelling of another type that I had not heard of! Your wood finish and the see-through fabric are particularly noteworthy - very many congratulations on a superb model.

LM has said just what I was thinking, Aviatik.  Wonderful work!

 :)  I am very glad that you like it. Thanks again for the compliments and comments. This is one of my favorit projects and I am very happy that I was able to bring it to the end. Informations about this aircraft are very few or almost nothing, except for one photo and a few details. Except Rusjan are known on Slovenian soil, two pioneers of flight Jože Zablatnik (Joseph Sablatnig) and Stanko Bloudek. I plan to do at least one aircraft of each of them.
