Re: BUSA 1/4 Dr1

Jeremy if you have never tried Solartex now would be the time! It's easy to use (probably easier than Monokote) and it just looks right on WWI birds. Your choice of course.....

Re: BUSA 1/4 Dr1

tHanks! Love Solartex - easy to put on and tough. Used to use it a lot back in the 80s and 90s BA ( before arfs). In this case I am working to match another DR1 done in Lowthars scheme that is already Monokoted. They are intended to fly together. It's a head scratcher - next one in Solartex - maybe a British Tripe.

Re: BUSA 1/4 Dr1

I'd strip the monokote one, and do them both in Solartex. Ever since I started using the stuff, I have zero interest in using monokote on any surface meant to be fabric covered!

Re: BUSA 1/4 Dr1

Jim's SE5A is gonna be in trouble!

I was already looking forward to Atlantic Warbirds... it's going to be really cool seeing more WWI birds there!

Re: BUSA 1/4 Dr1

Jim is already complaining about overwhelming odds in email - going on about referees and video something or other. All sounds like about to be shot down speak to me

Re: BUSA 1/4 Dr1

Maybe he plans to replace the current pilot figure with a "famous WWI flying ace" usually associated with Sopwith Camels & dog houses?
