If we are a tiny corner of the plastic model industry & market, can you imagine how small a part of e-bay we are... Even considering only that part of e-bay dealing with WWI related photos, books, kita & artifacts. Quite frankly, we couldn't rig squat. OTOH, if Sandy or anyone else on the List outbids me for an e-bay item, I have no problem with that at all. Its an auction, cash talks and BS walks. I'm far more concerned with preventing hard feelings amongst listees. I don't think communications amongst Listmembers is going or able to affect a seller from realizing whatever the market will bear on his item. sp ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 08 Jan 2002 16:33:57 -0600 From: Matt Bittner To: wwi@wwi-models.org Subject: Re: Luedemann (was Re: Wings in the Night-Caproni Bombers) Message-ID: <3C3B73D5.1010708@sprintmail.com> Okay, Okay, I give. :-) However, it's not just my specific example, as I have heard from another that his Nie.24 has almost the same problems.

I think wwi may be using ORBZ as well so that is all I know about that. Allan most likely knows more about it. I think I understand his problem. He knows more English words than he truly understands. He is totally self taught and is really a very decent fellow. It took me almost two years to figure him out. He also works extremely long hours with little sleep, and, I believe he speaks a bit quickly without enough thought on what he is doing or saying. I have spoken to him on the phone and he impresses me as a fine person. Like sawing a board. Measure twice and cut once. I learned to talk to him, and, he has changed a lot since then. Lee M.

I have been converting a Top-Gun Friedrichshafen kit to the Lubeck Travemunde just like I belive their construction office did - never thought someone would bother to create a kit of that aircraft. The Lubeck Travemunde aircraft set a standard for Norwegian naval aircraft until WW2, the largest hangar(s) were built for their wingspan, and all later aircraft had to fit within... It will definitely be an order going to MRR from me, just have to figure out which version of Ludemanns Tauben that is closest to the one we had in Norway. Pictures of "Start" (Etrich Rumpler Taube 3C rebuilt as 3F) are on the wwi-org site if someone has a Ludemann Taube to compare with. I am also interested in hearing from someone who has seen Ludemann Farman F.7 "Longhorn" and Lubeck-Travemunde F.4.

The "Angel" photo is a pilot/cockpit study which doesnt show this area, and neither the N5493 shot nor the "Black Maria" photo show a Rotherham Pump mounted on the undercart. I looked at an enlarged photo of "Blymp II" (N5493) in a Naval Eight line up (taken when Little was flying it) and there is no Rotherham Pump there either. Info from the other forum suggests that later Clerget 130Hp had some sort of internal pump responsible for fuel pressurisation, rather than relying on the Rotherham Pump. Anyone have any info on this? Given this, I may be justified in leaving the Rotherham pump off the model, thus avoiding yet again my first wood carving experience : -) All the Best Neil E. > Can anyone help me with these questions.... > > All the Best > > Neil E > Hi Neil, Did you look to see whether the pumps had been relocated? Like as to the undercarriage legs? Many Sopwith Camels had this done as the vibration from the Rotherham pump could cause fractures in the cabane strut that it was mounted to. Also the vibration threw the gunnery aim off. To see the Rotherham pump that I cobbled up for my big Camel (NO it is still not done), go to the Photo Gallery and look me up and look at the Camel pics. One day I'll finish that Camel...

Maybe, suspend the list activity pending an investigation? Nah, he would let us continue provided we funded a new building, facility or department. :-) Seriously, I don't do ebay and have no strong feelings about it one way or the other. The possibility of someone off list finding out possible "ringing" activity on the list and complaining about it to UH seems remote. However, even the discussion that has taken place so far creates a vulnerability to be exploited by a list member that is expelled or "kicked" off the list and seeks revenge. I suggest that those listees that wish to consult with each other concerning ebay bidding could do so off list among themselves.

Is there interest in a set of scans for the wwi-org page? The trick for getting decent pictures in a museum is to bring the strongest flash you can fit to your camera... (I use an SB-28 on a Nikon F.100 SLR) Then it doesn`t realy matter if you use 200 or 400ASA film. If your flash is standard type, bring 400ASA, my prefered rand is Kodak, you will not see the grain unless you make very large prints. Most digital cameras has only a small flash which is fitted to the camera and draws power from the same battery. See if you can connect it to a larger flash, or at least bring one of these little mini-tripods and plenty of batteries. Large tripods are not always welcome, and the light in museums is usually such that you will want to use at least some flash. (Everything in the RAFM turns green unless using a flash) It`s the same for compact cameras, don`t expect them to light up the whole hall, but for a normal size WW1 aircraft they usually work OK. To keep the camera steady in low light conditions, lean against something like a pillar or wall, I find it possible to go as slow as 1/30 and still get sharp images. >Good Afternoon All, >Spoke with Mr. Ken Smith-Christmas of the Quantico museum today.

If an item is being currently bid on by a listee contact the bidder off list.

I have been e-mailing Gaston off list for a while and he is, in my opinion, a good person who is very passionate about life and his interests. This leads him to sometimes say things shooting from the hip without thinking it through sometimes. However, when this is pointed out to him he has always been amenable to reason and able to admit when he has been wrong. Talk first, think later, would have to be one of most common human foibles.

I am glad that your book hasn't been lost in the room shuffle. ;-) Cheers Ross >> Now I'M lost in the room. Oh- the book is The Official Monogram US Army Air Service & Air Corp Aircraft Color Guide Vol1 1908-1941 by Robert Archer. There's a surprising amount of on-topic stuff in this thing.

I don't know what's going on with that. I got a royalty check for a previous book, but no other news. I'm going out to Baltimore the end of the month, so I'll try to check on it. By the way, I checked the new Fletcher book I have British Tanks 1915-18 and it is a new book. Some pictures have appeared in print before, but there are a few new ones as well.

Hey Matt, feel free to twist that knife a little while you have it stuck in there :).  I don't know what's going on with that.  I got a royalty check for a previous book, but no other news.  I'm going out to Baltimore the end of the month, so I'll try to check on it.  By the way, I checked the new Fletcher book I have British Tanks 1915-18 and it is a new book.  Some pictures have appeared in print before, but there are a few new ones as well.
