G'day, Gents.
Gregory, thanks for the info. It makes sense, in a twisted way. Changing the centre of the roundel is easy, and changing the stripes so the red was closest to the fuselage means they'd be easily distinguished from French aircraft.
No, I didn't know about the wing tips. I'll dig out my "French Aircraft of the First World War" and look at what needs doing. I was looking at the Spad being another relatively easy learning build (still hoping for WNW to start on French aircraft) on the way to an Se.5a and Re 8. I just ordered the Datafile as well, (and one on the D.V/D.Va and Rumpler C.IV- I've got all the willpower of a mushroom, sometimes....).
Edo, why do things the hard way? Italians are just being energy efficient.
Uncle Tony and Steve, you're not hijacking the thread. There's a genuine connection to Ferraris, after all. Though I'vve always preferred Maserati's meself. One day I may even win enough to buy one (a mMaserati)- after I get every kit that WNW releases. :-)
Cheers.
Dal.
