@ Russell:  Thanks for looking in and your comments, it does make an interesting model.

@ Bud:  Thanks for stopping by.  I will do that, I will take a photo with all three of the DH9's.

Seems I'm the only one who seems to actually like the DH9's looks! The model turned out great, too!

Thanks Kong and Jeroen for your compliments and looking at the model.   I brought it to my monthly club meeting where we have a monthly contest, winner getting a $20.00 gift certificate.  Last night I got the gift certificate for the DH.9.  I was quite happy with it.

I made a conversion of this in 1/72 from the Airfix DH 4 in the late 1960's using an article from Airfix Magazine. It was my first biplane conversion and I used the same markings as you.

Your model is soooo much better - I do like this machine (odly) - looking at yours I think I am beginning to understand why! Fantatsic modelling.

@Lone Modeler:  Thanks for stopping, checking it out and your kind words.  That must have been quite the conversion back in the late '60's from the DH-4.  Would have been neat to see.

@vB.  Thanks Bob, some of the modelers at the club were quite amazed at the turnbuckles.  Told 'em I got 'em from you.  Fun stuff.

What a very nice build, I like it a lot. I am actually thinking that the DH9 is a pretty plane :)

Came out beautifully.  I got one of these in the WNW warehouse damage sale - I'm looking forward to building it.
