Fokker DR1 bought off LMA website, appears to have never been completed, built well, covered in doped Nylon. New Rudder built busy with elevators waiting for dope and Nylon to arrive.

Busy on the paint work, wing undersides all now light shade of blue, streak camo/dope effect on fuselage being built up the good old fashioned way with brush, paper towelling and a lot of experimentation , artist in the house keeps giving me good advice, I found after trying my way that her advice was correct, you would think after twenty four years of marriage that I would have learnt to listen, always did think I was a bit of a slow learner, missus just calls me stubborn.
