It was my father who actually made the first models with me (times of communism) so models were rather hard to buy... My first WWI bird was a Fokker DVII by Smer, I got it for my birthday. He is still the first one to see my progress. BTW in the place where I live there used to be an aerodrome where Germans repaired their planes during WWI, as far as I know it was somewhere around late 1917 and 1918. From the unverified sources I know that there were Fokkers DVII in Jarocin.
