Viking Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I see the latest Wingnut Wings email newsletter contains this teaser: "New model on display at Chattanooga; -32068 1/32 All new model in development for 2020 to be revealed on 7 August (Chattanooga time)." Please let it be a Sopwith 1½ Strutter. 😀 It'll go so well with the Pup, Tripe, Camel, & Snipe, and there are so many markings it can wear, including some great French ones. What do you hope it will be..... Cheers John 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Paw Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) I have been looking into various WWI types recently (as you do) and came across a surprisingly over looked aircraft. It is the Short Type 184 seaplane. Which I think is right up WNW street? Although there were a lot built so it isn’t hitting the obscurity buttons. It does look like a wonderful aircraft. So that one for me 👍🏻 Thanks. Edited August 3, 2019 by Bear Paw Incorrect number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnT Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 I’d like to see a BE2. Some 3500 built and while not exactly in the Camel Fokker or SE5 performance stakes it was an important type with honourable service and somewhat overlooked in modelling terms maybe.

ARHinVA Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Someone on Hyperscale hoped it would be a German Observation Balloon, with a Frank Luke Spad XIII as a Duelist boxing. I must say that would be seriously cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st george Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Looks like it might be a HP O/100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncan B Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 It looks like you are getting what a lot of you have been asking for for a very long time, Fokker Dr.1 along with that 0/100 we had already guessed at. Duncan B 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howlindawg Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 The DR.1 will be very welcome, I can see myself building a few of these, especially since the Werner Voss tripe is one of the options. There will probably be a Richthofen Aces boxing at some point in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One 48 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Pre-ordered 1 of each of the DR-1's from Hannant's, no guarantee that will assure I get them, but hope so, I think they will sell out fast and it may be a long time before they do another run.

One 48 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Well I hope so, hope you are right, but no harm in getting my order in early to be sure, the buzz about these two releases seems to be higher than any previous WNW release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Paw Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I have the Roden Dr1 and it is a good kit. I have the Decals for it from the recently released WNW Albatros DV with all of Richthofen’s aircraft. They recommend using the Roden kit in the instruction book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
