I had enough trouble building this aircraft in 1:32 scale, couldn't imagine trying to do it in 1:144.  Thanks for the info and the link Rick.

I just ordered the 1/144 DH.2 frame model. I'm not sure if I'll build it, it looks like I'd need a microscope! :o But I just couldn't resist. It looks so cool!

I know the author of the kit, by coincidence he is my very good friend and one of my modelling mentors, who taught me a lot about building 1/144 WWI aircraft.

The D.H.2 stripdown is his baby too, this is his build including a strip-down pilot. :)
