Thanks for the tip!!!

Looks like the no-bust boxing is catalog listing QS-002 (just above "PLANE" on the box cover) and the listing for the bust version is QS-002s (just above and to the left of MvR's head.) Two different offerings from Meng?

OMG - Is that a sleeping Norwegian Blue? Is "The Lumberjack Song" next???

The N.XXI and N.XXIII are available for pre-order at the Copper State site.

I inquired regarding this subject a week ago and received the following from Richard Alexander on February 9" "Hi Ron, Thank you for your inquiry and concern. Most people in China are taking extended New Year holidays at present. There will no doubt be some additional procedures that the people who are transporting goods from factories in mainland China to ports will need to contend with. So there probably will be some delays but as it is a developing situation no one can estimate what delays (if any) there will be to Wingnut Wings production. The biggest determining factor remains the fact that no Wingnut Wings model will go into production until I have approved the tooling. Regards Richard Richard Alexander General Manager Wingnut Wings LTD PO Box 15-319, Miramar 6022, Wellington, New Zealand www.wingnutwings.com"

"Fred Jack, which „huge book“ do you refer to? " Almost certainly the book from Flying Machine Press, authored by Davilla and Soltan, "French Aircraft of the First World War."

If you haven't tried the Nieuport 17 pair from CSM - they are on sale at 55 Euros (pre-VAT) here: https://www.copperstatemodels.com/page/store/WyIyIiwiW1wiMVwiXSJd

Lukasz said they hope to bring it in at 99 Euros but they had not finalized that yet.

The Baby also saw service with France, Italy and Norway.

Track - let's get this thread back on...

Enough! Where are the moderators when you need one?

Has there been indication of release dates for the Nieuports and the star-strutter?

"... Yes it’s quite unique - kind of chunky looking bird. " Even chunkier with the so-called "baby coffin" enclosed MG mount on the upper wing. There are a raft of schemes for the D.I, most of which have unpainted plywood fuselages with large geometric shapes or letters and CDL wings. Linke-Crawford (27 victories) was a well-known user of this aircraft as well as the Phonix D.I and Aviatik(Berg) D.I (WNW please add these to future releases.)

"... Brandenburg D.I, anyone ?" Yes, please!

LOL - I'll start saving now. I anticipate buying several of each!
