All I know is that the adorable wife laughs every time she hears FOKKer or FOCKe Wulf.

Of course he'd pick a German plane designed by a Dutch person in supposed Czech colors? Maybe it was built in Albania to boot and captured in China.

And without rigging.

Ron........... I think you should go a head and build the other two wings.............we all know this was a DR1 model and you just decided to quit......:p

Arrrggghhhhhhh! My secret is out. I should have known this crowd would figure out "The Case of the Missing Two Wings". My plan was to use them to make a Fokker D.VI... :(

I guess we'll go ahead and call this finished. Control horns and cables - check. LG brace wires - check. Machine guns - check. Windscreeen - check. This model is certainly buildable and almost certainly buildable to a better appearance than what I accomplished. The fit was actually quite good, paper quality mediocre and the coloring was OK with the exception of the overly pink lozenges. All in all, a fun build.

Nicely done, Ron. I still think it lacks a wing or two.
