   Hi, fellows,

   Thanks for your reply and greetings ! (Alberto, Carlos, Ira and all of
you that have sent an e-mail to me).
   It has been too difficult to find any kind of accurate information
regarding WW I here in my country.
   I have new questions to ask you :

   1) Is the "silbergrau" color that was painted over the Pfalz fighter
seemed with aluminium color (Tamiya XF-16, for instance)? Could you send me
more options (Humbrol, Gunze Sangyo, etc) for this color (item number,
etc)?
   2) Was there any von Richthoffen's Fokker Dr.I entirely red (upper and
lower sides)?   

   Thank you in advance !

Alexandre,
	MvR's last Dr.I, 425/17, was all red, first with a red rudder and iron
cross-style national markings, later--and finally--with a white rudder
and crosses altered to the straight-sided configuration. Some historians
believe that the red paint used on this a/c was a bit darker than that
used on his earlier machines.

Matt,
	If memory serves, when I was there last year the museum opened at 9; it
would certainly be open by 10.
