If this is the article I'm thinking of (Jul 1983), this is indeed a
little dated. Sure, some of the old stuff is spot on, but there are
others that - due to new evidence - are grossly wrong. An example:
the Siemens Schuckert D.III/D.IV. Until <can't remember person's
name> here in the U.S. really started researching, all drawings upto
that point were wrong. This would be my guess for the E.III.
However, as if to refute myself, there are some new drawings that are
also suspect. So, if you go against the Scale Models' plans, the
wing is off. If you go with the Datafile (which, it appears, Eduard
did), the wings are spot on. So, brain, et.al is right, but so is
Randy... Makes you think, doesn't it?

Cool! Can't wait! Anymore people want to provide reviews/assesments
of kits currently working on/purchased?
