Hi all!

New WNW kit to be announced in Feb. Any ideas?

A Dr.1 to coincide with BvonR’s 100th in April? An Albatros III? Halberstadt CL?

Maybe an Re8 duelist or special ed. re-pack .. any thoughts on what the future holds?

Sad to see they did again a unknow subject that was un-interesting to history. Two times in a row look's like a bad joke to me. 

He won't get my money on this one

I'm not sure if I will get me one, but other than Danny I think that the choice of subject is an interesting one. This plane may not have great significance as a fighter in WW1, but the way it is constructed and engineered shows the development of a new kind of planes. You can easily see the familarity with a JU-52 for example. That there is nearly no rigging involved is not only a nice touch for the WW1-kit-coward, it is also a sign of that new era of plane constructions after the war.
On the other hand will the corrugated Aluminum make the task of masking not to easy.

Looking at the instuctions, I love the option of showing the wings seperated from the fuselage with internal detail supplied. I guess this will tempt some of you :D.

Looking at the paint schemes nearly gets me convinced that I will buy one, because there is one placed in Adlershof, a suburb of my old home town of Berlin.

Cheers Rob

Well Im with Rob here... I just love the option of the separated wings! And its a great model to start with WWI.

So I think it was a good choice from WnW,

 

Cheers

I didn’t realise. WNW will not bring out a kit that competes with existing models. So no Dr.1. But my next guess, a Halberstadt, has just been announced! yay!

Richard Alexander of WNW was at  Phoenix NATS  this year and he joined us for dinner (there was Smitty,Harv and his Wife Bev,Tim(Biggers),Wolf, Ernie,Radu(Radub),Brian (Out2gtcha) and ME (Martin was unwell  :wine:  )

and the gentleman was SO quiet and never said a word about anything that was in production or what he was bringing out.

:hsmack:

WE plied him with Beer but not a word ... so THERE you have it... unless he secretly told Radu who was sat next to him !!!

The real reason why Martin wasn't present was the fact that he is scared of rigging and rigging is scared of him. It is a symbiotic relationship and that would be the reason why we don't have satisfactory intell . ok,,, ok ,,, radiation poisoning played it's role as well. :)
