Look for the Albatros

Yes, I agree but sometimes a propeller driven aircraft looks funny with gear up and propellers not
turning!! Engine failure and glide?

Thanks Petestein. The albatros i mean is the old ww1 german biplane. I know it's crazy but i love rigging wings...

The only problem with the landing gear idea is we are talking about a WWI Albatros DVa biplane, not the float plane

With all due respect, I don't think rigging a wing is crazy. I myself love to do so. And yes, there is a differebce between the Grumman Albatross and the beautiful German Albatros biplane.

All that's missing now at Ecardmodels out of Luis' outstanding 3 model portfolio is his earlier SPAD. I sure hope Luis posts more kits!!

Well, heck. I had completely forgotten that he had a second SPAD XIII.

Chris had only two kits on the Ecardmodels Store backup 1 Albatros and 1 SPAD.....I thought they were the only kits. I didn't realize that the SPAD listed earlier (the one I had on my backup) was the only one....so turns out the SPAD I had was not the same SPAD that was in the backup....so we do have all three after all (between Chris' backup and my backup) and I can list this one now. All that is missing was the cover, because they were corrupted on the Ecardmodels backup....but I found the cover in an old thread here on the forums. So watch out for that one too tonight!
