Don't know if I've ever seen this plane before.   Interesting stuff.

You'd be suprised how important it was in the early days of the war. Flown by many nations, and lots of variants too. Then later used for an extended period as a trainer.

Albert Ball VC learned on a G.III - as seen in the iconic portrait photo of him in uniform, hatless, with his coat over his left arm. Among many others my great uncle Harold Jackson trained on a G.III with the Ruffy Baumann school at Hendon, getting his licence in May 1915 before going on to die in June 1917 in an FE8 with 41 Sqn. There's a good Wikipedia entry on the type, which was operated by no less than 28 countries. I hope the kit sells well. T.

1/32 Caudron G.III preparing for take-off, meaning the test plastic arrived, and boy it looks great! We are currently checking all the parts and making sure you have the best quality, accurate model of a well known French, early war machine!

We have received the latest test plastic of our 1/32 Caudron G.III, this time a second-generation samples batch. Looks pretty darn good and now will start the production, just in time for Christmas.

Finally, we are now able to show the full set of our 32006 Caudron G.III plastic kit "what is in the box". Those who pre-ordered this kit will have a bit more, but we will show that later on. The good news is we are now waiting for those plastic runners to arrive here in Riga, as they were picked up and are now on it`s way to Latvia and in 10 days they should be at our office. Another good news, we should have some Caudrons kits available after the pre-order period, which should be closed on Monday the 13th. But it will be a limited stock, so grab them while you still can, or "while the stock last". The rest is on its way by Train, it is more than a month in transit, from what we know it should be around very late JAN or FEB 2022. But don`t worry, all of the pre-ordered kits, should be dispatched before Christmas

13 hours and 30 minutes left before the end of our 32006 Caudron G.III pre-order. The first batch should be in Riga on the 20th of DEC, that is when we are planning to start sending the orders, so if all goes well we should be able to finish sending them before Christmas

I had no interest in this aircraft as a subject ( I have all their Nieuports) but having seen this model and options....further resistance appears futile!

 

That's a lovely model and overall package.
