Decided I need to stop procrastinating and build something! So dug the above out (hey ho, only one wing, should be 
easy!!)

Anyone out there converted one to an 'N' or a 'V'? I reckon for the 'N' I just need to remove the 'hump', slightly 
shorten the wingspan and straighten the wing trailing edge. For a 'V', remove the hump and new wings to be 
scratchbuilt. An RFC 'I' will need the hump removed as well!

Engines, guns etc to use a selection of Aeroclub parts as per Matt's IM article.

I also have the Roseplanes u/c set that Matt mastered.

Internal details of Moranes are hard to come by, so I'm planning to use the Edard 1/48th Instructions as a 
reference - unless anyone knows better. I beleive the only surviving parts are a prop and spinner at the Science 
Museum in London!

So, how many years do you think this will take me?? :-)
