[excellent description snipped]
Well, just superb! Absolute best of luck with this marvelous adventure.
I have to wonder, were I to build a replica machine, would I not also
elect to do a Pfalz D.XII. Great machine. Though, I hope you don't mind
my saying that completion in 5-6 years seems a little optimistic [*gulp*]!!
Ah, well, greatness takes time.... Erik

"We looked into the sun, where we knew the Hun would be, but all we saw
was the bright burning globe of fire that pierces the cold blackness of
space. I lowered my eyes briefly to keep the tears from fouling my glasses,
and when I raised them again, Robertson was gone. I had always before
thought of the Sun as a bringer of Life and Light; now, only of Death...."
