Three old Fokkers (groan, again) and a Pup


Recommended Posts

As a Fokker Dr.I popped up last week on RFI, I thought I'd add a couple more, together with an E.V and a Sopwith Pup ...

Fokker Dr.I (serial unknown) flown by Staffelfuhrer August Raben, Jasta 18, 1918. Revell 1/48th scale. Brush painted acrylics, home-made decals.

All feedback welcome, as ever.

Excellent work, lovely models with superb finish to them. I have just completed Raben's Jasta 18 Dr.I in 1/72 - The Roden kit. I had information that the engine cowl on this machine was white? I can't find photo evidence of this that shows one or the other.

Regards Andrew.

There is a photo of a lineup of Jasta 18 machines, and the first machine is the triplane of Raben 479/17. The cowling is white. The pic can be found in the Leaman book and a book by Alex Imrie.
