I have a kit from a german manufacturer (Tom Modellbau) but recently (june) I got the same kit under a new label from another manufacturer, on sale very cheap from Hannant's. There was 2 versions, a polish and a french 75 with different wheels. The kit is workable, but the main flaw are the very simplified carriage and wheels.

In a different vein, a co-worker of mine has an attachment he bought separately for his scanner (brand unknown) that replaces the regular cover. This attachment is some sort of light box, and is used for copying negatives and slides. >> Just recently we bought a new scanner that came with a slide/neg attachment. It's a dedicated unit with its own light source that fits over the top of the flat bed and has a built-in slot for the neg or slide. The thing plugs into the back of the scanner and when it's engaged it cuts out the regular light bar. Because the resolution isn't nearly as high as those expensive slide-only scanners, it probably wouldn't be very good for printing out in 8x10 size, but for smaller pics and web work it's great. The scanner does 1200 dpi, which is beyond wonderful for regular stuff, but given the size of a 35mm neg or slide, it just doesn't quite have a enough guts to completely capture every nuance of these small transparancies. I like it though- it allows me to scan all the slides I've taken at museums and air shows and use 'em for work room references. And as I said- for web work it's fine.....oh yeah- it's a Microtek ScanMaker, has 42bit color, cost around $200, has less length-wise distortion than any other scanner I've ever used (a pet gripe of mine about most scanners) and also scans full-blown legal size!

However, there were a lot of taubes with wooden fuselages, monocoque or not. I'll check on "Taube, Dove of war" book according to those data you mentioned.

It's just that Albatri wouldn't have been my first choice, but I particpated, and this next one I'd like to do the ones I like better. Doesn't mean I dislike the other two, just like Sopwiths better. I'd be more than happy to guarantee that the next cook-up would be Nieuport after this.
