Well it took a few months, and many yards of rigging, but at last, I've finished.

Some pics.

Hi Colin
A great result. Well done with the rigging. Pilots in those days were certainly brave to fly in those fragile, early planes.
A model to be proud of.

Thanks all for taking time to have a look. It will be something small and simple next, I think a brace of Airfix JP's might fit the bill..

Pilots in those days were certainly brave

I seem to remember reading once that, many pilots were killed by the rigging wires during quite minor crashes.

Under natural light

I try to photo all completed builds outside. The natural light helps - lots.

but i know the rigging would never get done

Try something in 1:48, you can cheat a bit with the rigging in this scale. I do !
