[WWI] [Fwd: Air Plane from family pictures]

[Jim Landon]

Thanks Merrill. ... If they're all oop, that explains why my local hobby shop just gives me a blank stare.

 

I know, I'll start scratching one and a short time later somebody will release a new kit.

Pegasus offered it in 1/72, Blue Max in 1/48; the ot DH4B, was the old MPC, AMT?  sorta 1/48 kit. 

AFAIK all are OOP. The Roden is just the English version, but it shouldn't be that hard to convert, but I don't off hand remember all the differences, I'd have to dig out my Smithsonian book.

American Liberty engined DH4s is my guess. The cockpits look further back than on the standard version, where it was under the wing.

There are ladies strolling along the flight line so I would guess after the war?

A person e-mailed this scan from a family photo album. Looks like a
squadron of DH.4s to my untrained eye. 

Enjoy,
Allan
