The spoked wheels were scratchbuilt under the watchful eye of my friend
Ed (by the way I have some more photos of his masterpieces, when I've
got time I'll post them).

Yes it came with a whole host of resin bombs.

I found the same problem with the Breguet drawings, The degree of
stagger was gauged from profile view photographs rather than drawings.

My version contained parts for both the A2 & B2. I have enough useful
bits (A2 fuselage etc) to really soup up my old Merlin tooling some day.
If only I had the time.

My version had decals for US, Chinese, Russian & (I think) Czech
machines.

Douglas:  It's unlikely that I'll post pictures of it for a while as it
was done for review. Maybe in a year's time.

Regards

Dave

Ah, that dreadly inverse stagger of the wings.. anyway you have succeded
and 
the model looks fine.

So where did you got those on the picture? Did it came with bombs?
Looks rather accurate to me. It's so hard to find 2 Breguet 14 drawing
that 
look the same! (in fact it's hard to find 2 breguet 14s that look the
same!)
