Hello!
Ok, I see that nobody is interested in this relationship any more. I think it will be best when I take a break and give here a final gallery only with a link where this model is available. At least I will not bore you.

Best regards.

I have been following this with interest. Knew nothing about this plane until you posted this.

[MacSongLi]

I always love to see another one of your models. Beautiful work.

Great build thread with stage by stage pics!

[Krzychu74]

Hello.
Thank you Friends for kind words and interesting. I know that this is a little-known plane and in such threads there will never be much discussion and interest. However, once again I give a new post and no response, I feel ignored.
As you know, English is not my native language and I'm definitely making a lot of mistakes. Maybe this is the problem?
I really like showing new projects. I am already here for over ten years, but sometimes when I see that there are discussions in other topics, people are happy to write, and in my threads there is silence, I want to finish showing anything. I really have to think about whether it makes sense to continue showing new projects, the more so that next will be a little known aircraft again (Kondor D.6) and probably there will be no interest again...
Forgive me.

Back to the topic. Time for the upper wings and start make of rigging.

Best regards.

An excellent build of a strange little plane. WWI was a hot house for the development of aircraft design and all things mechanical. The aircraft design was simply overtaken by newer developments. As you say, the fact that there was only the one example built does kind of limit interest in the model.

I greatly appreciate your choice of aircraft, which is a nice deviation from the more well known fliers. Keep them coming. Also I would like you to know that I am looking forward to building one of my more recent purchases, which is the Besson MB-411.

I have to think about it. Maybe when I will design a Bf-109, Spitfire or other famous aircraft, I will do report from building and there will be more interest...

I hope you show us the model of Besson. :)

The spinner and props remind me of a Bristol Be2c. Dave

Weirdly beautiful. Just goes to show the Brits will try anything

It is a very different looking design. A really great model. Nice work.
