You were not very far with the Brisfit nigel,
my new project is a Bristol Scout...
I liked the cage a poule idea , wich is to do 1915 planes, as we are on 2015...
locking in internet for information, I find this blog:
https://bristolscout.wordpress.com/David and Rick Bremner conserved three pieces of their grand dad aircraft .
The Grand dad FDH Bremner, was RNAS fly sub lieutenant and pilote in Imbros isle in greece since december of 1915.
They decided to rebuild the plane, their granddad spoke about when they were kids, the bristol scout n°1264.
Rick at the left and David at the right.
I found the idea very worm; Any reconstructin project is very respectable, but to do the grandfather aircraft is like charging wood and fabric of emotion, love, and a splendid tribute.
It It goes perfectly with my way to understand modeling , represent historical aircraft because behind them there are men whose memoris can be remembered thanks to our models
there is four pics of this plane:
IMbrul in mars of 1916
Thassos in june of 1916
Thassos i n1916 FDH Brenmer "Bunnie" is holding the plane.
this pic shows surely the plane in 1915 (it's the 1262 or 1964)
It had to look therefore like the 1258:
I don't know yet how will I represent the plane.
I wanted to do an english plane in 1915 with the union Jack in the fuselage and red and white cockade, but the pics we have are all 1916 pics. Bremner arrive in late december of 1915...
One particularity of this plane is he had, has the 1962 had, inverted colors i the cockade, as french roundels were:
