[WWI] [WW Watta you duin? was List inactive?]

[Stuart Malone]

I'm trying to slog through some that got 'shelved' half way through  
their build:

Roden Albatros W.4 early
Pegasus Sopwith Snipe
Pegasus Sopwith Salamander
Pegasus Sopwith Dolphin
Airfix Sopwith Pup
Pegasus SSW DIII
Roden Fokker DVI
Albatros DI (rebuld of a conversion from ESCI DIII)

I would dearly love to start something new, like the Airmo Albatros  
CXII or Pegasus Rumpler, but must.... resist..... temptation........

Not the victory but the action.
Not the goal but the game.
In the deed the glory.
