STUNNING!!

can i ask, a few guys over here are contemplating GTM for 1/3rd scale planes, seeing as you have built a sample of their wares, can i ask the usual questions regarding kit quality, scale fittings given, fit of parts etc etc, thanks in advance for your replys

Hi Fabrizio,

Lovely model, I think I remember seeing it on the GTM site front page. Top Work.

Alan,

I'm sure Fabrizio will concur, GTM kits are spot on, my D.VI was a dream to build, great instructions too and well known to be scale. Everything fitted well and great service from Glen (you know the SE5 makes sense )

Yes Mat Glenn makes great kits every think fits perfectly!!! And the construction is like the real plane.

Nice to know, i do fancy the SE5,but i fear its going to be a price, then von tappin will say its too common--then, i will have to kill him

Hi Fabrizio. It looks great.

Please could you give me some details of the fuselage construction? It looks to be wire braced. Are they individual bracing wires and if so, how are they attached and tensioned? Or, is it a continuous wire threaded through holes in the verticles and if so, did you line the holes with anything to stop the wire cutting into the grain? Also, what adhesive and stain (or varnish) did you use on the longerons?

Thanks

Alan
