LVG C.VI Plywood and Canvas

[miamiangler]

Thanks Guy`s ,

  I trying to get over the flu bug so not much has been done . I did get the fuel tank done .Today I got the Archer transfer rivets and small nuts and bolts . I am also working on the hand fuel pump which will be installed on part A62 . I redid part A36 so the back of the seat can be seen as the photo from the Memorial Flight Museum . I used lead wire for fuel lines .010 and nuts .5mm .









That`s it for now , back to taking more drugs 

Enjoy,

      Willi

Thank you for everyone`s  the kind remarks .


Well  I did some more work on interior parts . While not quiet 100% correct I try to get it as close as I can . I`m getting lots of great ideas from all the awesome builds on this site . I`m still trying to figure out if the fuel lines where actually white as seen on the photos from Memorial Flight

I modified the panel so the PE foot holds will be seen . I built the fuel hand pump and added a door which still needs to be painted . I will be adding a compass which I will steal from one of my Fokker DVII kits.

 





That`s it for now ,Willi

Thanks Rick  (RAGIII),

  I am really enjoying this kit ! glad I have one more in my stash .

I also what to say a very big Thank You to Richard (bstachel) from Aviattic. The package arrived yesterday with some awesome decals and resin parts . The decals should be a very big improvement then the ones from WNW`s .I plan  to start on the wings once I get the cockpit and engine done .The resin priming cups will give the engine even a  more realistic look . 


Thanks ,Willi

Hello Willi:

Your interior is coming along nicely, flu bug notwithstanding!  Your fuel tank and all the extra plumbing really looks the business and will definitely add interest to the cockpit.  The wing decaling is extremely tedious.  I have done two of these, and on the second one, I did the wings first, just so I didn't have to be tedioused out by the time I got to them.  I used the W&W decals and it really dressed up the wings.  I used the blue tapes, just because, well......just because I felt like it.  Authentically they should be the light colored ones.
Looking forward to seeing you work through this and how your interior comes out.  I wish I had one more!   

Best

Mark

Thanks Mark,

   My flu bug is gone . A week of hell and loss of work ! I did try to get some things done but was slow . Spending lots of time looking at interior photo`s of LVG`s . Looks like they all had small differences . As for the wings I am on hold until I see the PE and masks I get from my friend in Poland . I got the second LVG on e-bay 150 dollars with free shipping .I thought that was a good deal .

 Cheers ,

                Willi

Today I finished the seat and fuel tank which will be installed later tonight in part of the cockpit . I decided to paint the fuel lines as the instructions in the WNW`s Hannover CI.II kit .









More to come soon .
