Graham Boak Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 But the Ninak was a WW1 design used then and built in such huge numbers that so many spares were left that the Wapiti specs called for their use. Ditto the Brisfit, of course (except not so many spare wings...). See pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm working on a conversion that I'd like to make available... Seems like everyone is doing their own conversions haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr T Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 John has had some serious health issues over the past few years, which has not helped. He is 80 now, and although very sprightly at SMW, he is not in the first flush of youth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it must be something like that, I sent him some photos to help with the drawings some years ago but he'd already had some health issues back then. I imagine they're not top of his priority list so we'll have to be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahavelona Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I have asked about this at Telford a couple years running. Dora were waiting for John's help with drawings as I understand it. John is now retired; a project like this would be significant work for him as I understand it. Dora of course face huge difficulties with the ongoing war. We have of course been blessed with the 1/48 and 1/32 kits from Lukgraph, so the Wapiti has seen some much needed love in scale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWM Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 So perhaps Dora can cobtact Lukgraph , what was good for 1/32 and 1/48 will work for 1/72... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutcastJoel Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 When these do arrive is there any hope of them including markings for 601 Sqn (County of London RAuxAF)? With ClearProp releasing the DH9 recently and @dora working on this, my 601 collection in memory of my Grandad is getting a lot easier! ps. Evgeny, you are a legend!

That little 'a' makes a world of difference. Paul. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately both are the DH9a (Although that is just pure luck, I hadn't clocked that the 9 and the 9a were substantially different). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
