Welcome the to WW1 modeling list.

disposition."

If you're willing to invest a few dollars, I'd reccomend you to get the 
"Fokker Dr.I" Special Datafile from Albatros Ltd., where there's a lot of 
details, good drawings of structure and exterior (even if these were tweaked 
here and there in small details later). I can't recall all the exact things 
you need to care for in that kit, but the interior is reversed and shallow 
(the longerons and uprights should be made from scratch, the spark advance 
levers should be on the opposite side than depicted on the kit moldings, 
etc.) the wing "ties" attachment plates should be refined, the tail shapes 
revised and the cowl "lip" added. A great kit that needs some work, but a 
great model can emerge from it.
