[WWI] Revell Sopwith/Talking about...

[J.R. Boye]

 I thought the Triplane was the best of the Revell series, despite the "fabric" texture. I built mine as "Peggy" with the early tailplane and the blue fin and it is still in my collection. (The Pup was the best Airfix)
     Looks like the early tailplane is still included in the kit, but no markings are provided for an early example. Too bad.
      In the Schiffer book, Bob Pearson lists Collishaw's planes as N 5492 and N 533 (this was a late model with twin Vickers and the 'C' on the tailplane).
     Alexander's is N 5487, Sharman's N 6307, Reid's N 5483 and Nash flew N 5376.
