  1. It's been a long-term ambition of mine to do a RNAS Sopwith Triplane, ever since I discovered the name of Australia's top Ace in WW1. Now that is not as long a time as you might think, because I was well into my 50s by the time I came by this nugget of information. If I'd heard it before I would definitely have remembered the name, wouldn't I?? We, (in the UK) are so darn parochial and downright blinkered and shortsighted about history - recent or otherwise - it's been trimmed down to Mick Mannock, Richthofen and that blasted red Fokker DR1. That's not a proper Triplane...... PFFFF. THIS is a Triplane, this is THE Triplane ‼️👍 So this is a bit of a new adventure for me. I'm not very practiced in the Art of biplane construction, never mind triple. This is no master class in WW1 kites. And I hate photo etch fiddly bits. Rigging is a mystery and a black art. However, I've got my kit. In fact I've got a selection....won at auction 😎 The Tripe is indeed an Eduard Profipack with all kinds of weird items that are not injection moulded plastic. But for this chap, my namesake and Australian hero, who sadly, like so many, didn't make it to the end of hostilities, I'm going to give this my best shot. To try and get in the zone, to see if I've got any chance, I've done the Pfalz D.III as it looked the simplest in terms of the sticks and rigging. It's not bad!! Nearly finished and a few lessons learnt along the way. The Bristol F.2B has many sticks and much rigging and has been relegated to the bottom of the pile. I also have stashed an Eduard Albatros DV, remarkably similar to the Pfalz. I think Pfalz were basically trying to improve the early Albatros type. Any way, I've now started rummaging in the Sopwith box and get to grips with the contents and instructions. The basic airframe is fairly straightforward, it's all the additional bits and pieces that bothers me.
