Take time for ca. 50 minutes, every second is worth it.  ;)
Very interesting picture series from Achim Engels.

And here the plane has now landed. The new owners are in Australia.
The Fokker E.VIII -  seen in the background in the last few seconds - was also built by Achim Engels.

TAVAS doesn't own the planes, they are on loan till 2030. Archim will always retain ownership.

The aircraft are to be returned to him in flight worth condition.
He loaned them the three aircraft, E.II, D.VII and D.VIII (E.V).

Thanks for the links to these videos, Bertl. The second video shows the wings and rigging being attached. I wish I could rig my models as fast as they rig the real thing!  ;) ;D
