Nice job! Never been brave enough to take one of these balsa wood and paper kits.

Thanks Guys,

A friend and I have started up a Facebook group for WWI aircraft and earlier (1903-1918). We welcome model builders, flight simulators, and historians. I love these old planes almost as much as the Liaison aircraft I restore.

This is the 1912 Blackburn I built, it flys well also at 60 grams. This one is also a scratch build from plans I drew.
