Hello!
I did the short break at the design of Mitsubishi Ka-8 and I started doing the small, simple French aircraft Ponnier D-III Racer from 1913.

Best regards.

Looks great so far. This should be a quick one.

I think that it will be good for beginner modellers.

Looking Good.

I can't help thinking of these type planes of planes as single wing bi-planes. ???

Cheers JTF

Wow! This break is also interesting like Ka-8.
And I am looking forward to seeing next photo!

Hello!
Thank you Friends!

In Ka-8 I started already unroll of parts and soon I will show the first sheets with unroll parts.
The design of Ponnier is going very quickly.

Best regards.

Hello!
Hehe, Chris, I don`t think so, but this one certainly was flying whale.

Ok, I made engine. Ponnier D-III had 14-cylinder two-row engine Gnome 160 HP (120kW) and in 1913 it was the highest technology (the world speed record before I W.W.)
