Very well detailed main body, with the rest in photoetch nickel (I think). The photoetch consists of the jackets, end/site (and they include an extra "just in case"), and a few pieces to liven up the body. Whenever I start my Fokker D.VI (probably my next German subject) these are definitely going on. Yes, some work, but I believe that it will be worth it.

It has an illustrated section devoted to the topic. Actually, the star insignia was the U.S. insignia at the entry of the U.S. into WW I. I have a 1917 National Geographic that has a photo of that insignia being painted on a wing by a factory worker. However, the U.S. adopted their version of the cockade for their aircraft in France in order to conform to the markings style familiar to their allies. The reason was to avoid "friendly fire" tragedies that could occur if British, Commonwealth or French airmen came across a strange national insignia that was not an Allied cockade. Remember the Genet diary entry where he claimed he saw that the Germans had adopted cockades with a red/white/black pattern? He was so eager to bag a Bosche that he was willing to shoot at a French ally whose center blue roundel was a little darker than he expected.

I nominated the CS Dornier D.I as my kit of the year, last December. The resin is beautifully cast - thin wings, good detail - and includes a number of parts that are duplicated in resin and metal so you can choose whichever you prefer and/or keep some bits for the spares box. Good transfers including naval type hex. All you need is a set of Tom's German Interior PE and some Reheat instrument decals and this will make into a very attractive and unusual subject. Pity the Huns didn't put the Dornier into service - it might have claimed a few more aces like Reinhard with its jettisonable top wing!
