    If anybody is feeling adventurous ( or masochistic! ) how about the Copper State Models Caudron GIV in 1/32?

          Yes from me. I’ve got three or four biplanes in the stash. Won’t say which one yet though, depends on my mood at the time.

              You guys are killing me here.....Yes, I do have some bi-wing thingy's in the stash (as some on here might know) and am in the middle of building one right now. This GB would be a good reason to build my WnW Hansa-Brandenburg W.12 and put the H-B W.29 (mono-wing) off till later on...Okay Ian, you can add my name to the list!!!

              Most people are put off from building bi-wingy birds because of the rigging. Trust me folks, if my old fat, bumbly, shakin', sausage fingers can do it, anybody can!!!...

                Dave, I have the dog butt dragging Caudron G.III from from CSM in the stash. After looking at the rigging diagrams, I'll pass on building it for now.......

                  I have a couple of candidates, but I think I'll see how I get on with my entry for the Russian plane build before I commit to another bi- plane!

                        Can't say Dude 2, and my previous attempts at finishing GB's really suck....but, as they say, the only absolutely sure things in life, are death and taxes! I do need the H-B W.12 built before the end of March though......................

                            Now Andrew...That really isn't cheating, but you should really give rigging a try. Yes, in 1/48, it is a it more difficult than in 1/32 but....A man with your skills would have no probs at all. Give it a shot my friend!!!...

                              I'd like to play too, but that means choosing ONE when most of them in the stash are pairs... Two different DH9As, Two Furies... Four CR.32s. FIVE if I count the 1/32 one...

                              I have too much stuff...

                              Maybe the Grebe or the Woodcock...
