F.B.A. Schreck H Flying Boat No. 203

I had this one in my folder for sometime. Finally got around to doing the rigging as well.

I added and installed a detailed radial engine, The pilot came from Good Will:D I really like to see the rigging. So I usually always use black thread.





Still haven't figured out the thumbnail thing yet:(Sorry:(

Well I thought I saved the model to my folder, but I guess I didn't and I can't find the web site link. Anyone out there happen to know where it is?

Nice build, I like the rigging too. Looks like the pilot is ready to go.

Hey, what a pretty flying boat. Looks a lot like Savoia Marchetti (is that how it's spelt...). Always liked that general configuration on a flying boat. - L.

Nice work on your Flying Boat project. If it has wings and floats, I am always "in" for it. I have been looking at a couple of offerings from Mike at Gremir in the floatplane line to try my hand at, a little more modern subjects but then they are probably easier than this one.

I really like this one, Bob, and I don't think I've seen the kit available ever. What scale is the kit? Any idea who offered the kit?

We got a new computer and I guess in the process of transfering files this little model must have been lost. I believe it's 1:30 but I'm not sure.

I did a google search F.B.A. Schreck H flying Boat (Belgian) and it took me to this site:
http://www.wwi-models.org/Photo/BRI/FBA/index,html

I can see from the pictures it is the 203. That's as far as I got.

I either didn't save the link, or it was lost also.

Still looking

Hooray:D:D:D I found the file. I stuck it in a folder called, between the wars. It gave me a web site too:
Flugbeobachter.com. That is the site printed on the model sheets, but alas it's not there.

At least I still have the model file It's three pdf sheets, 1:48

Will be glad to share it, if someone can tell be how

Love to build models but, I'm a puter dummy.......

cd thanks a lot. I really liked it too. I thought I had lost it and was very happy to find where I had tucked it away.
