The difference between a plain-text e-mail and an HTML e-mail doesn't seem like much (figure about 500 bytes for this message in plain-text and about 4KB in HTML). But when you multiply that by the 10 million AOL users you get a massive increase in Internet bandwidth.

Returning home after a rainy weekend, let me tell you the news about my Fokker Dr.I - I had few time for modeling, unfortunately, so I choose to work in the triplane. After destroying the landing gear last week, I brought home the other two Revell Dr.I I have in my cupboard, to use them as replacements. So I made other landing gear and this time it went pretty well :-) But... I was looking carefully at the instructions and then at my model. You know, Revell Dr.I has only two holes in lower fuselage and I had to drill other two. I had done this last week, but I discovered that I had drilled them in the wrong places! I made them *behind* the other ones, instead of *ahead*! Well, some putty, sandpaper, a new coat of red paint and the damage was fixed. Looking at the fuselage now, no one could imagine I had opened two holes there :-) So, anyway I decided not to give the model the clear varnish coat yet. I still must drill other two holes in top fuselage, for cabane struts. And this time I want to do the right thing in the first attempt :-) but next week, without hurry. Ah, important news! In order to increase my triplane choices, I decided to learn how to make the streaked camouflage (I included it in my 2002 resolutions). After some advices from Grzes and Dame Karen, I started working on this. I joined the fuselage halves of a replacement Revell Dr.I and took a top wing also. Painted everything with matt linen (Humbrol 74) and, when the olive drab paints I ordered from Hannants arrive, I'll make some experiences. Let's see what happens... So I'll be able to build at least LvR's triplane and Voss's 103/17. I must choose others later. Well, these are the news! All the best from Brazil Marcio (from home) :-) ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Jan 2002 19:31:00 -0600 From: "Lee M." To: wwi@wwi-models.org Subject: Re: Help clean up my act Message-ID: <3C4234D4.2F36E8F9@x25.net> Check with AOL Everyone using it , that have asked, always reported back that AOL told them there was nothing they could do about it. I have always used Netscape and their E-mail system.. Never had a problem and since Virus and Trojan horse stuff is usually sent to Internet Explorer which is about as screwed up as an Internet program can get with huge security holes... I have never had either one and I do not have an anti virus program. I have been on Bulletin Boards and the Net for almost 20 years.... So I will continue doing thing my way. Not to many months ago I would send messages telling people to not send HTML and stuff, but, others on the list thought I was being pretty stupid and harsh as well so I stopped. But , it des not change the fact that many if not all of the new AOL programs screw your butt into HTML, and, they claim there is no way out. Others may have found a way but I almost bet you will not get a succesful method in an answer from any of them... On the list pages there is a system for stopping HTML passed out by Matt Bittner. I have heard it does not work on AOL but maybe it could help you. Hope you find a way. Lee M.

Toko 1/72 Pfalz D.XII Great little kit IMO, but I had my moments and the finished model is definitely *not* the sort of model I'll be bragging about. It had a rather chequered history. I dropped it when the interplane struts were already in place and had all of them break. Removing them, making new brass ones and getting back to the same point cost me too much time and I missed the opportunity to have it in our QMHE contest with Steve Perry's SE-5a (which is *why* I was building a 1/72 model in the first place) THEN when it was near done my son hit it with a tennis ball. Repairable, but the loz around the strut locations became ever less perfect, and the need to redril and redo some of the rigging, and repaint a few nicks - all add up to an okay but not competition model. On the *good* side - with not all that much extra work it looks very like a Pfalz D.XII I opened the side vents and scoops on the cowl, offset the ailerons and elevator and little else, Some detail (footstep and inspection panel) added from painted decal or 5 thou card, some minor reshaping and that's about it folks. (Can't entirely recall *what* I reshaped - but the prop is terribly thick and was certainly one part that needed work) One diversion from my usual materials - I used Eagle Strike loz, because I needed 1/72 loz quickly and that's what Andrew at my favourite shop has. Colours are good, and it goes on and lays down well BUT I have never before used loz so prone to chipping away at next to no provocation. FWIW - after all, it's only dinky scale Shane ********************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail is confidential and is intended only for the use of the addressee(s).

I have a few general questions if you don't mind. I have recently become the owner of a Renwal SPAD XIII, an Airfix SPAD VII and an ESCI SE-5a. There have been several comments about these kits in the past and I don't remember much about them. I have built all of them in the past (long past) and at that time, they looked ok. What is the general consciences about these kits from the those of you who are more familiar with them? Also, does anyone know what the current going cost/price for the Hasegawa 1/12 scale Wright Flyer is. The 100th anniversary of the first flight is fast approaching. If it is not too expensive, it might be an interesting project that would turn in to a nice conversation piece.
