The kits not all that bad as a cheap start to a Nieuport 28. The wing rib stations are correct, tail/rudder needs to be reduced in height and the cowling is about 8" too long (it's easier removing plastic that adding) and the cockpit opening is too big - all easy fixes. Also a nice set of decals. I've cut back the cowling to the proper length and added the three ventilation slots. Since this came out, my next move is to tackle the stringers on the fuselage. My first three attempts have been were to fill the spaces between the stringers with putty but the original stringers done by Aurora aren't straight by any stretch of the imagination. I'm thinking about sanding the fuselage down behind the cockpit with a single edged razor blade and file to where I could re-skin with scribed plastic. This would allow me to get the sharp edges as on the prototype. Another thought would be to lay down thread or fishing line over the sanded fuselage but in looking at the Datafile photos the stringers/fabric are very straight and a rounded thread may not look right. Anyone else tackled redoing this fuselage and had it come out looking close to the prototype?

Not so daunting as it might appear at first sight as the rear fuselage is fairly conical and scribing will cause the card to take up near enough the right curve. That and a little judicious cutting to accomodate tailplane and you're there. These old Aurora kits are worth the effort if the price is sensible, and Glencoe have seen to that. But tell any collectors viwing the model that it's an origional Aurora kit and just watch them blanch ;) cheers Peter L Charles and Linda Duckworth wrote: > Every two years my Glencoe N.28 comes up to the top of the pile of kits and > I work a few hours on it and it goes back to the bottom.

Anyone else tackled redoing this fuselage and had it come out looking close to the prototype? Thanks, Charlie >> I've tried: filling in and filing; total removal and re-stringering and filling in; total removal and reskinning with scored card- both .005 and .010- then I got the Blue Max! I'm not a great fan of Blue Max in general, but the fusulage is PERFECT. I wish they would just sell those fusealge shells as an aftermarket accessory. What makes these pieces so great is that the fabric is shown as flat facets.....but back to Auroa/Glencoe........one thing you might want to check is that this kit has too many stringers- which I hadn't realized in my first attempts. Knowing this might make it an easier job. I'll tell you how I would do it if I HAD to now- remove all the molded-in stringers down as far as I could get, restringer with wire around .007, and cover with silkspan tissue and dope! I've done wings and fuselages this way before and it really looks real, and is actually quicker and less messy than some other techniques.....AND it doesn't neccessarily have to be fancy tissue and dope. I've used the tissue from shoe boxes and good old fashion laquer- it shrinks just like dope!

Thanks, Charlie >> Charlie (and others) I tried pretty much everything you have listed and it still didn't look that great. I am far, far happier with my new Blue Max Nie.28 (photos to Matt soon), which looks great. Rimmell was right in his review that the rear fuselage is the best representation of fabric over stringers yet done. It's worth the extra money, and SMO found a bunch of them recently, so it's available. If you got a good sheet of decals in your Glenco (registry and opacity are big problems) then save them for use on a BM, which is so good it won't take years to filter to the top of the to-do pile, believe me.

Howard" To: "WWI POST" Subject: New Topic Fokker DVII rear decking Message-ID: <003801bffff9$61759a60$ac928ece@phoward> Hi All, Here is a point that we who live in Abilene have been discussing for quite a while. The rear decking on Fokker D.VIIs seem to have quite a variance in shape. Some are smoothly rounded similar to the spine configuration on the DML kit, and some have a very pronounced peak in the area directly aft of the cockpit . We've been trying to isolate a pattern for this difference in aircraft photos, but (assuming applicable photo captions are correct) there seems to be no hard and fast rule regarding manufacturer and cetainly none in the age of the aircraft. At this time, we have noticed the following trend:(not standard but trend) OAW aircraft: There is almost always a pronounced peak on spine regardless of aircraft service length. An excellent picture to show the feature that I'm bring up is on Page 8 and 33 of the Fokker D.VII Anthology 2. Albatros aircraft: Less pronounced peak when visible with a more rounded rear deck contour than OAW. Page 55 of Anthology 2 shows a good view of this area on an Albatros built machine. Fokker aircraft: More rounded rear deck directly behind cockpit as is illustrated in Anthology 1 on page 27. We'd really like to hear some other opinions in this area. It has been discussed that a retrieval and rebuild program for fuselages and such existed, much like the one used for the Luftwaffe aircraft in WWII. This could very well be, and could easily account for the intermingling of characteristics of different manufacturers on certian airframes . What we are hope to do is try and find out where the starting point for these shape differences is.

I have kept a record of the number of subscribers since January 97 - before that it had always been about the same (~= 110) during my time on line. The rise in list numbers since the beginning of 97 is about 100% The rise in the last 18 months is 44% off of a higher base. There are now so many of us that I am having trouble keeping track of which one is afflicted with which perversions !
